Our indoor arena…an expensive big future project in itself… 😅 whelp, found the sand that was in it…!

We are a nonprofit specifically for blind horses, which means every bale of hay, every farrier visit, every new rescue that arrives… is made possible by your support.

Thank you for helping us give blind horses a new vision on life.

LES Haven is a nonprofit 501(c)3 EIN: 92-0264852 dedicated to giving blind horses a great quality life.

Anyone else, or just us…!?
Now I know it’s not mornin’ anymore but after editing and piecing the chaos together, it’s afternoon y’all…

The list of ADHD Schmidt Chaos projects: it’s an ongoing list, not sure why we do this to ourselves, it’s like our eyes are bigger than the amount of hands we got 🤷🏽‍♀️

Oh but they will get done, we promise! Patience is 🔑? Yeah, we will go with that!

Enjoy this little ADHD snippet and what it’s like to be in the creative brains of Lou and Korey Schmidt, the founders of LES Haven Ranch… there’s more to this list but this is the current gist of it 🤗

Be sure to turn your volume up! This is what our blind horses hear…peace.

“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.”
‭‭John‬ ‭14‬:‭27‬ ‭NIV‬‬

We had the honor to have incredible folks from Mission Mountain Empowerment visit our ranch and our blind horses today!

We have partnered up with MME (Mission Mountain Empowerment) to provide a healing and therapeutic connection and bond between each individual at MME and with our blind horses here at LES Haven Ranch!

MME is a non-profit organization here in Lake County, Montana, that provides community-based services for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, helping them live more independent and inclusive lives through residential support, day programs, employment opportunities, and vocational training. Established in 1975, MME focuses on empowering people to have a voice in their lives, find paying jobs, and integrate into the community, moving away from institutional care.

We look forward to this journey with MME and the future that this provides for both MME and LES Haven Ranch! This has been something I have been really dreaming to do with LES Haven, having those who are handicapped and those with disabilities to share such a beautiful connection and have a therapeutic journey with our visually impaired horses.

God’s beauty is in all things and today, we saw His light shine through everyone ✨what a blessing of a day it was!

If you would like to give a gift of any amount to MME, you can d0nate at their website: www.me-mt.org

Thank you 🙏🏼 in the meantime, we are going to think of ways on how we can better accommodate these amazing individuals at our ranch so that they can have a better experience! One idea we had was to pave a pathway around our arena, we definitely need bathrooms (as we only have ours in our trailer for folks! If any of y’all have ideas, we are open to hear them (or read them 😏)! We want to figure the numbers to have this done for them! Thanks again y’all and God bless!
