Once again, our amazing community steps up!!

A HUGE thank you to the nine wonderful volunteers who came today to continue carving out our beautiful forest trail. This part of the path was especially narrow with barely enough room for one person to walk through. Look at it now!!

We are extremely grateful to one of AMA’s long-time families - Kerry, Gretchen and A - for their vision, hard work and continued dedication to making this trail a reality for everyone in our program to enjoy 🌲 We love you guys so much!!!!

Special thanks to these three amazingly dedicated young men who really step it up for their fellow nonspeakers.

After a hugely successful summit and plans for more conference appearances, a book club, newsletter, zine, mini summits and the sensory barn as a community hub for nonspeakers, it only seemed fitting to name Niko Boskovic AMA’s Director of Advocacy and Community-Building. Congratulations Niko - you continue to lead and inspire us into a very exciting future!!

(Stay tuned for details about our first mini-summit online - Saturday December 5!)

Next, I cannot tell you what a joy it’s been working with Ethan Nagy as we continue to build our equine therapeutic program. Ethan continues to surprise us with his very open mind and strong work ethic. He is willing to try anything I suggest, and we have really achieved something special with the horses 🐴🤎 plus we have a surprise announcement coming next month….

(If you are interested in our 1:1 equine program, please contact us!)

And finally, I would like to thank our son Ben - he comes out with me almost everyday to be with the herd, and his honesty and presence teaches us so much. Thanks for tolerating me, Ben!!

We have the best community ever!!

We are so fortunate for the generosity of a lovely couple in Oregon City who gifted AMA this awesome stock trailer 🩶🤍🩶 they also donated 3 tons of orchard hay last year, which allowed us to have a really nice hay surplus for this coming winter.

We are extremely grateful for everyone’s support, especially since we have been striking out this year in the grant department! But that’s ok 😌 we just keep applying and keep doing our thing! Thank you for following our journey and for believing in us! 🧡🤎💚

After dropping off pumpkins and cleaning at the Mustang Retreat House, it was dark but I could just barely see some beauties as I was closing the gates….

It’s not too late to join us for a special Halloween Fridays at the Farm this Friday, October 23rd from 11-2pm! Wear a costume if you’d like 🙂 we will have pumpkins to carve and a pizza party, along with our usual time spent outdoors with the herd.

RSVP required at [email protected]. We hope to see you here!!

We finally have begun work on our sensory barn!!

Thanks to a generous grant we received from the Oregon Community Foundation, this sensory integration gym will serve as a hub for the nonspeaking autistic community. As two of our participants put it, “This place is our respite”, designed around sensory and regulation needs in order to “meet our bodies.”

Our Fridays at the Farm guys have asked for:

Lots of different types of swings
Medicine balls and beach balls
Balance beam
Visual lights
Water feature
Padded areas to sit, stand and lie down
Individual rooms for sensory breaks
Climbing wall

It will include two quiet rooms, a waiting area and a full bathroom 🤠☺️

If you’re a nonspeaker, what features would you like to see in a sensory space to meet your needs? We would love to hear from you 🤩👏

The sensory barn will be completed and open by Spring 2027 ✌️😍 Our next Spellers and Typers Advocacy Summit will include use of this space - we can’t wait to share it with you!!
