Lyra and Lilly (and their mom, Sarah, who isn’t pictured) have been part of the farm family since 2019! These sweet, curious goats have such fun personalities and are definitely favorites around here!

Some of the residents who were here this spring helped plant and care for the crops in our garden, and now, months later, the residents here today are harvesting what from those same plants. One of the things we love about Garden Group is that the work doesn’t stop when someone moves on. What they planted keeps growing, and someone else gets to enjoy the harvest. 🥕🌿

Looks like our love birds, Clipper and Dreamer, had a pretty successful date week last week! 🐴💕

Fingers crossed that around this time next year, we’ll be welcoming another Newfoundland Pony foal to the farm!!

Happy birth-month to these two handsome boys!

Hope turned 2 on the 9th, and Hero turns 2 today. They shed out the last of their baby fuzz this spring, and suddenly they look so grown up. Of course, they still run, play, and get into trouble like they're babies... some things haven't changed!

Happy birthday, Hope and Hero! We’re so lucky to watch you boys grow up here at the farm.

This week, we had the pleasure of giving Andrew a very fond farewell as he graduated from our program.

Peers and staff shared how grateful they are to have gotten to know Andrew. He may be a man of few words, but when he does speak, it’s always genuine and meaningful. It was special to watch him build relationships, become more comfortable being vulnerable, and grow into a quiet but caring Peer Leader who led by example.

During his time here, Andrew developed quite the special bond with the equines, especially Bella and Sophie. He also kept the house well-fed, regularly cooking with fresh ingredients from the garden and putting plenty of love into his meals.

Andrew, we’re so proud of you for pushing through the challenges you faced while you were here and for letting us get to know you. We wish you all the best on your next adventure, and we hope you’ll come back to visit soon!

Yesterday, we had a very special visitor all the way from Canada!

George’s original owner, Nathalie, and her goddaughter reached out to ask if they could come visit George and of course we said yes! We had such a wonderful time learning more about George, hearing stories from his past, and sharing the farm and what we do here with them.

It was especially meaningful for our farm staff to see just how loved and cared for George still is, even from miles away.

And as if the visit wasn’t special enough, Nathalie and her goddaughter gifted us a beautiful picture of George to hang on our wall! We’re so grateful they took the time to come see him and share a little piece of his story with us.
