Maria Flint

Co-Founder, Director

Maria Flint is an extremely motivated and results-driven management professional with exceptional leadership and communication skills. Having spent the last 20 years of her career in government contracting, she has extensive background in administrative and operations management, fiscal operations, business development and customer services.

Maria is also a licensed builder and is happiest with a tool belt wrapped around her waste, a drill in her hand and a major carpentry project underway. She has built most of the cabins and structures on the farm single handedly and loves to share her passion for building, design and woodworking.  Maria has her master’s in business administration, along with a BS in Aeronautics and Certificate in Business IT Management. She is also a US Navy veteran.

Today, Maria not only runs the daily operations of our 60-acre farm but is the “go to” for farm machinery operations, livestock maintenance, crop/garden production and management, contracting workers, equipment, services and more. She is working hand in hand with Cindy to build The Fox Moon Farm Project to success.

Yesterday the farm was full of tigers, princesses, cowboys, vampires, a tractor or two, and one very dapper donkey in a witch hat. 🎃🐴

Our Halloween party brought our whole Fox Moon family together: kids and families from our Healing with Horses program, our Community Garden crew, retreat friends, neighbors, and longtime supporters. We celebrated farm style with hayrides through the woods, cornhole, pumpkin painting, trick-or-treating around the farm, and a costume contest that was very hard to judge. Even the goats dressed up. 🤠

This is what community looks like. People of every age, background, and ability sat side by side on hay bales, laughing and cheering each other on. Some of us have known each other for years and some met for the first time yesterday, but by the end of the day it felt like one big family.

That's why we do this work. Healing happens in the arena and the garden, and it also happens when people show up for one another, celebrate each other, and feel like they belong.

Thank you to everyone who came, dressed up, brought treats, and helped make the day so special. We love this community. 🧡

The Mermaid We Made Together 🧜‍♀️

This week one of our young friends came to the farm ready to create. We were making clay decorations for our Halloween party, and after a few deep breaths together, she decided the best way to make something was to make it together. Taking turns, sharing the spotlight, sharing the fun.

Then she flipped to the mermaid in the clay book and decided that was next. She handed out the jobs: a tail here, a little face there. Piece by piece, side by side, our mermaid came to life.

The day ended with an outdoor obstacle course of her own design and a popsicle back at the barn. Patience, teamwork and a whole lot of joy. This is why we do this work. 💛

Christmas Morning in October 🎄

There's nothing quite like a first ride. 🐴
One of our young friends showed up for his very first riding session absolutely stoked. Before anything else, we talked about how horses are like mirrors — whatever we feel, they feel too. Toby has been a little unsure lately, so our rider promised to bring calm, positive energy. (He did.)

Together we learned every piece of tack and what it does, offered Toby a peppermint, groomed him (with a quiz on the order of the brushes!), and tacked up. He walked Toby around the grass, stopping and starting so the two of them could learn to talk to each other.

Then came the mounting block. The moment he settled into the saddle, his face lit up like Christmas morning. 🎄 We walked around the ring for fifteen minutes, and his smile never left his face. A huge success — for rider and horse.

If you have a child struggling with emotional or behavioral issues and think that working with horses here on the farm might help, reach out. We're here to help! foxmoonfarm.org/fox-moon-farm-equine-learning/
