Our Organization

Our Mission

 

The Fox Moon Farm Project is a nonprofit dedicated to harnessing the healing power of nature and animals to nurture growth, learning, and healing. We believe in creating a compassionate space where individuals with emotional, physical, social, or learning challenges— including children, adults, and those with complex trauma—can find support and hope.

At the heart of our work is our Healing with Horses program, an experiential Equine Assisted Learning initiative that offers hands-on, farm-based activities. Through working with horses and farm animals in nature, participants develop vital life skills such as self-confidence, emotional regulation, anger management, and motor development. Our mission is to inspire transformation, foster resilience, and nurture well-being for all in a warm, caring community.

Our Core Values

 

1. We are committed to a positive environment in which everyone may experience a sense of belonging and worth. We honor relationships and take responsibility for fostering trust, respect, and good will. We share stories about our heritage, calling, and vulnerabilities. We desire to make a difference in the lives of others while making a living.

2. We act with uncompromising honesty and integrity in everything we do.

3. We support, trust, and empower employees to further the shared mission of The Fox Moon Farm Project. We are committed to developing the confidence of every employee’s individual talents and capabilities.

4. We are trustworthy. We are reliable, authentic, and loyal. We do what we say we will do. We have the courage to do the right thing. We welcome accountability and conduct our business with honesty and transparency.

5. We honor the intrinsic dignity, autonomy, and worth of each person. We treat others the way we would want to be treated. We are considerate of each other’s feelings, values, and points of view.

6. We choose to serve first, embracing our roles as servant leaders in our organization and our community. Service is a force that motivates every member of our organization. We are committed to serving those we lead as well as those we follow. In the spirit of service, we freely give of our time, energy, and resources.

7. We work as a team, achieving more collectively than individually. We are a cohesive unit setting aside our personal agendas and working toward our shared mission. We are committed to creating synergy by encouraging each other and working collaboratively.

🔥🐴 Hoofbeats & Heartbeats: Our Closing Ceremony 🐴🔥

This weekend we gathered one last time as a circle of women for the final session of Hoofbeats & Heartbeats, and our hearts are still so full.

Over these past months, these brave women showed up again and again. They came looking for grounding and direction, and with the horses as their guides, they courageously looked within: at the core wounds beneath the people-pleasing, the protecting, the caring for everyone but themselves. And they discovered the quiet, peaceful voice that was there all along. 💛

Our closing day was sacred. We sat around the fire as the rain fell, each sharing something we were grateful for and something we were ready to release. We wrote them on bay leaves and gave them to the fire and the lake.

Our beloved Maria guided us through the Native American tradition of prayer ties: small cloth bundles holding sacred tobacco and herbs, each one infused with our prayers, gratitude, and healing intentions. Many of us offered our ties to the fire, sending those prayers up with the smoke.

Then came the dancing! 💃 Arms raised, laughter ringing through the gazebo, and maybe a happy tear or two. We ended the way we began, with our horses, saying a tender goodbye to the gentle teachers who showed us who we truly are.

To every woman in this circle: thank you for your courage, your presence, and your willingness to look within. The light has been turned on, and it isn't going anywhere. ✨

🌱 Hoofbeats and Heartbeats returns this spring! If you feel called to join our next circle, keep an eye on this page or reach out to us to learn more.

One… two… three… all the way to twenty. 🐴

That's how grooming went for Matt last week — counting each brush stroke out loud, side by side with his team. Then he helped lift the saddle up and over and tighten the girth before heading to the ring.

From the saddle he reached for little colored cones and set them on top of the fence posts, one by one, following each step of the directions. And when we played a game of "point to the nose," he got it — and the high-fives came flying. 🙌

Practicing verbal and language skills, gross and fine motor skills, following multi step directions and building self confidence: it all happens a little more naturally with a patient horse underneath you.
