Hear what our clients have to say about their time with us…
“I really love going to the farm it helps my life in so many ways. I suffer from depression and being there a life changer for me. Being in nature, being with wonderful providers that are so compassionate and open. The horses are so wonderful it’s as if looking at them is reaching into my soul. It made me want to live. I can go and experience these wonderful things as I reach out to the horses i am learning about them and myself; being able to be compassionate with them and learning how to be compassionate for them and myself. Being at the farm reminds me of a positive childhood experience I had and it reinforces the good things in life. The people at the farm really make a difference. They encourage me to have hope that I haven’t had for a long time and I want everybody to know how much I appreciate them. Thank you very much.”

“The farm has saved my life. I’ve been close to death so many times in my life from my drinking. I haven’t had a sip of alcohol since coming to the farm because I need to see my friends (the horses and staff) as often as I can. They keep me sober and make me the happiest that I have been in a very long time. This was God’s will for me”

“I am so grateful for having the opportunity to experience the farm before I die. I could have easily died in my life before knowing what it is like to experience the beauty, nature, animals, peace, and quiet out here. I feel like a little kid driving out to the farm staring intently at all of the things I am driving by like the trees, farm fields, and things I have never experienced in my life. There are no police sirens, attacking dogs, gunshots, or yelling. I can’t believe I would have lived the rest of my life not seeing something as amazing as this place.”

“I had a rough week and struggled with depression. Being at the farm lifted my spirits and helped me to be present with my grandchildren. Just know that you are not only helping me, but you’re helping future generations through the work that we are doing together.”

“God so graciously led our family to you and we are incredibly grateful. To quote our counselor, "We are turning around a cruise ship not a speed boat". That's a big job and yet we have all seen that cruise ship begin to turn; it brings encouragement. Because of the in home presence we were able to receive crisis intervention during a stressful episode; that was a pivotal moment for all of us. Our Counselor has been a bright spot, bringing happiness and laughter in the midst of heavy "stuff " and she has connected on a personal level with each one of our kids. The therapeutic benefit of interaction with animals and nature at the farm has been especially evident with our daughter. I, too, have enjoyed some moments of external peace watching the horses and listening to the grasshoppers. We are excited to continue to work on meeting family goals and to learn how to correctly respond rather than react to issues that come up. Thank you for caring and investing time in helping us enjoy being a family again, one moment at a time. “
