How We Impact the Community

We believe every life can be positively impacted by horses and farm animals. In 2024 our team and 12 horses, 2 ponies, and 10 miniature horses have helped provide calm and perspective for 6 unique community groups. This year we have closely connected with over 70 students with special needs; empowered more than 100 youth in our riding program and/or day camp; welcomed 2 separate Veteran groups, along with their families for weekly animal interaction; enriched the lives of over 50 seniors who visited our ranch twice a month; enjoyed helping Camille Creek High School Students practice responsibility and nurture commitment through their weekly work on the ranch; and provided enrichment classes for homeschool students.

Testimonial

While Jerehmeel has difficulty bonding with others, his bond with horses is amazing. He will stop riding many times during a session so he can hug the horse. A few months into riding, his teacher and in- home therapists noticed an increase in his ability to focus, and in communication attempts.
