Whether it be in the art of equestrain riding or many of the other activities. The Farmhouse Center’s stables are home to approximately 16 horses, six of which were adopted through the Premarin PMU (Pregnant Mare’s Urine) Rescue. All the horses are employed in providing therapy and experiential learning to the students. We have two miniature horses for al toddler program for the ages of 3- 6. The Camp is offered all summer, and during school breaks. Scholarships are available. Horses have a natural healing power that has been proven effective in physical, mental, and emotional therapy. The staff at the Farmhouse Center often sees marked changes in a people just from them spending some simple, quiet time alone with a horse. The horses continually provide ample opportunity for students to learn multiple levels of communication through touch, body language, and vocal tone all in a safe environment. Details
