Hoping to see Marlene Dodge at this event. We’re all connected out there in this small world!
Wonder Wood Ranch invites the community to its upcoming “Teach and Tails” Open House, a special event showcasing the meaningful partnership between Central Coast College’s Veterinary Assistant Program and the ranch’s mission to bring hope, healing, and restoration through the power of rescued animals. Guests will have the opportunity to meet the vet assistant students, tour the ranch, and witness first hand how education and compassion come together to serve both people and animals in need.
At Wonder Wood Ranch, students from Central Coast College gain valuable hands-on experience while caring for horses, goats, pigs, and other rescue animals that are part of the ranch’s therapeutic outreach programs. As these future vet assistants learn and grow, they also help Wonder Wood Ranch continue to be a place where at-risk youth, struggling families, and those facing tough times can find encouragement and healing. Donors and supporters are encouraged to attend and see how investing in this partnership directly impacts lives—both two- and four-legged.
The event will feature:
A student-led presentation on species-specific care and rehabilitation
A guided mini tour of Wonder Wood Ranch facilities
A horse training demonstration by ranch staff, showcasing rescue equines in action
