ience, people of all ages will be able to attain new found hidden potential and become more all-round participants in this community. Mission:
To improve the lives of people, of all ages and abilities, through mindful hands-on exploration with the intent to better our community and the world for all generations. It is run on a purely volunteer basis with Beverly Maloy providing enrichment activities through a Mindfulness Kids Camp for K-5th grade students during the summer. Do you remember when you were a kid and summers used to be having fun outdoors and you didn't realize you were learning? Well this Camp is all geared towards fun times outside while learning life skills through play. Let's not forget the cooking/baking mistakes and we still enjoyed eating them! Not to mention, being able to feel the bond with a blind miniature horse knowing you are helping him build trust in you. You will never know how much you can learn from the alpacas, goats, and horses. In the front of the mouth, horses have teeth north and south, alpacas and goats only on the bottom (south) which differs between chomping and nibbling. A real life experience in learning. The 40+ chickens show how independent personalities roam the pasture as a large family and that some chickens enjoy attention more than others. It is surprising how you are able to experience the different colors and softness of all the birds! Beverly invites all interested to come and take a tour of the farm and allow her to show you the magic of Heart and Soil Farm!
