Give What You Can

 

Over 700 children enter the foster care system every single day. 90% of these children will experience trauma. 25% will attempt suicide, and thats just for those who are still in the system. 81% of these young men will be incarcerated and 71% of these young women will become pregnant. 40% will be homeless within 18 months. 

Scary statistics but true.

Your donation provides critical funding for our Healing with Horses program, our Day Trips for kids and our Community Garden. Your donation helps us care for our horses and provides financial scholarships to those in need. Even the smallest donation helps.

Thank you, Cindy & Maria

Healing with Horses

50% of all children experience some form of trauma before the age of 17. That’s a pretty big number. That has led to exploding levels of anxiety, depression, anger, suicidal tendencies and more. In Virginia, 13.8% of all students have special needs and are in special education. And that number continues to rise.

Please consider donating to our Healing with Horses program where we help children (and adults) with special needs, find healing and solace, while learning critical life skills needed to successfully navigate adulthood.

Community Garden

Of the 390,000 children in the foster care system in the United States, 97% of these young adults will enter chronic poverty.

This statistic is astounding! This past season, we planted, grew, harvested and distributed over 2,000 pounds of fresh vegetables to families in need in our community. Not only do our gardens support the impoverished, but they also provide healing for those who work in the soil.

Horses don't hide what they're feeling — ears back means something, a soft nicker means something else. For many autistic individuals who find human social cues confusing or exhausting to decode, an animal's honesty is a relief. What you see is what you get. That clarity builds a kind of trust that's hard to find anywhere else. ... See MoreSee Less

Horses dont hide what theyre feeling — ears back means something, a soft nicker means something else. For many autistic individuals who find human social cues confusing or exhausting to decode, an animals honesty is a relief. What you see is what you get. That clarity builds a kind of trust thats hard to find anywhere else.

There's a moment we don't get to plan for — the one where months of quiet, patient work suddenly click into something joyful.

Today, after grooming his horse, one of our young kiddo's headed down to the lake with his counselor for some fishing. He's tried before but had never caught one on his own. Fishing takes patience, and patience isn't easy for any kid — especially one who's working hard every day to understand his own big feelings and where they come from.

But that's exactly the work he does here. Caring for his horse. Caring for himself. Learning, session by session, that he can sit with discomfort and come out the other side.

Today, by the still water, that line finally pulled tight. And the smile on his face said everything patience, trust, and time on this farm can build. 🎣💚

This is why we do this work.

Book a stay at the Little Farmhouse, and we'll add something you won't find on a typical family getaway: a free 1-on-1 Equine-Assisted Life Skills session for your child or family member.

Here's how it works. You'll meet with one of our certified equine specialists, who'll start with a brief, no-pressure assessment to get to know your child. From there, it's just the two of them (with support close by) — your child and one of our gentle therapy horses or mini donkeys, learning together.

It looks simple. It isn't. Horses and donkeys read energy before they read words — which means your child has to learn to be calm, clear, and present to connect with them. That process is designed to help nurture:

Emotional regulation
Self-confidence
Reduced anxiety
Social and communication skills

For a lot of the kids and families we work with, this is the first time "practicing" a skill hasn't felt like practice at all.

This session is included, free, with your Little Farmhouse rental — our way of making sure your getaway isn't just restful, it's meaningful.
