Healing with Horses
Healing with Horses is an interactive, farm-based Equine-Assisted Learning (EAL) program that leverages the relationship between people and horses to impart essential life skills and foster emotional healing.
It is a collaborative effort between a professional horse specialist (and equine specialist), the horses and the client(s). This is an experiential mode of therapy, which means it is based on activities on the ground with the horses. This is an unmounted program, although we do offer therapeutic horseback riding as well.
Centered around different activities (both with and without horses), participants become part of a learning and healing experience in which they gain knowledge and information about how to engage in healthy relationships, build trust, learn effective communication and decision-making skills, how to manage their anger and more.
Community Garden
Gardening has been shown to lighten one’s mood and lower levels of stress and anxiety. It’s very gratifying to plant, tend, harvest and share your own food. A Community Garden is much more than that.
Many in our community struggle making ends meet and access to fresh produce is limited. Working in our garden not only helps break the cycle of poverty, but helps empower our neighbors to “dream, aspire and achieve”.
We have partnered with Thrive Virginia to help provide fresh produce to 25 families in need.
