Our Farm

Tucked away in Virginia’s backcountry, just 45 minutes from Richmond, our 60-acre farm offers a peaceful woodland retreat. Surrounded by nature, you can wander through the woods, sit on a boulder, sit by the lake, or relax beneath a tree. Escape the busy world and nurture your spirit in this tranquil haven.

With plenty of paths and quiet nooks, it’s a place for exploration, reflection, and adventure. Here, nature invites us to recharge, renew, and reconnect with our innate wisdom and compassion. Whether visiting for a farm day, working in the garden, or participating in an equine session, take time to stroll the lake, feed the goats, or simply listen to the birds.

Your soul will thank you.

Meet our Critters

 

We hope you like animals because our farm is home to 4 horses, 9 goats, 20 chickens, 3 dogs, 2 cats and of course our pig Sassy. And they all require lots of hay, food and LOVE! That’s where you come in. Join us for a Farm Day Trip or just to help volunteer and learn the inner workings of running a 60 acre-farm. There is always work to be done and we’d love to have you!

Join us in our Community Garden and help with the planting, weeding or harvesting to help make our famous homemade tomato sauce.

If you love horses as much as we do, then come on down to the horse barn and help us groom or feed the horses.

Our Gardens

 

We started gardening out of a concern for the environment wanting to be as self-sustainable as possible. Gardening is challenging, urgent, surprising, tiring, beautiful, fulfilling, and never-ending. Despite all the challenges, picture rows of sweet carrots, tomatoes dripping off the vine, flower beds in bloom and buzzing with bees. It’s truly amazing! There is always something to do, so come and join us in the Community Garden. Plant some vegetables, harvest some berries for jam or help us can some tomatoes for marinara sauce.

Mama’s Stage

 

Mama’s Stage holds a special place in the hearts of Maria and Cindy. After all, it’s named after our mothers. Its’ also become the heart and soul of Fox Moon Farm. Part music stage, part outdoor living room and part classroom, it’s a rockin’ space to hang out in (with disco lights to boot). We often meet at Mama’s Stage first thing in the morning and spend many a rainy afternoon hanging out on the stage. For those who have spent nights enjoying the stars, its a sight to be seen!

🌟 A Milestone Day at the Farm! 🌟

Today was an incredibly special day for Matt, an 18-year-old who’s been part of our equine-assisted learning program for the past two years. 💙 As a nonverbal young man with autism, he has shown amazing growth through our unmounted activities—working with horses, tackling farm chores, and developing crucial life skills like following directions, strategic thinking, and enhancing his motor skills.

After all the hard work and dedication, today marked a major milestone: Matt’s very first therapeutic horseback ride! 🐴✨

We started with some brushing and tacking up Merlin, and then, with a little help, Matt was able to confidently mount our gentle giant. As he settled on Merlin’s back, a huge smile spread across his face. 😊🎉 It was so heartwarming to see him following commands, telling Merlin to walk on and even throwing us high-fives!

A huge thank you to our wonderful volunteer Amy, who guided Matt and supported him throughout this exciting journey. Together, we ventured into the arena for Matt's very first ride, and we couldn’t be prouder of him! 🙌💖

We can't wait for our next session together and to continue this amazing adventure with Matt. Keep shining, buddy! 🌈
