Healing with Horses

Healing with Horses is a powerful and compassionate program similar to Equine Therapy, that supports individuals with mental, physical, social, or learning challenges through Equine Assisted Learning (EAL) and Therapeutic Horseback Riding. We serve children, adolescents, and adults—including those with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD), autism, complex trauma, and youth considered at-risk.

Our EAL sessions are designed to build life skills through ground-based activities with horses. These sessions do not involve horseback riding and require no prior experience with horses.

Each session is a collaborative effort between the client, a certified equine specialist, and our gentle, intuitive horses. Through engaging, hands-on interactions, clients are supported in developing:

  • Self-awareness & emotional regulation
  • Confidence & self-esteem
  • Communication & social skills
  • Gross and fine motor coordination
  • Cognitive and behavioral functioning
  • Anger Management & more

After each activity, clients are guided through reflective discussions to help process their experiences—exploring emotions, identifying patterns, and fostering personal insight and growth.

We believe in meeting each individual where they are, and creating a nurturing environment where healing happens naturally through trust, connection, and compassionate guidance. Whether you’re seeking support for yourself, your child, or a loved one, Healing with Horses is a journey of discovery, empowerment, and transformation.

Community Garden

Fresh Food. Stronger Families. Healthier Futures.

At Fox Moon Farm, our community garden is more than a plot of land—it’s a mission to combat poverty, improve food security, and nurture community connections.

Each summer, with the help of our incredible volunteers, we grow and distribute thousands of pounds of fresh, healthy produce to local families. Our garden supports over 25 households, helping them reduce grocery costs while gaining access to nutrient-rich vegetables and herbs.

But the impact goes far beyond food.

Through gardening, we promote:

  • Healthier eating habits
  • Increased physical activity
  • A deeper sense of purpose and community belonging

By working side by side in the soil, neighbors become friends, and individuals gain confidence, skills, and a renewed sense of possibility.

Farm Trips

Whether you’re planning a weekend workshop, family reunion or a school field tripFox Moon Farm offers a space where everyone—children, families, and adults—can come to reconnect with nature, with one another, and with themselves.

Our farm provides the perfect setting for meaningful moments—whether you’re celebrating a special occasion, reuniting with loved ones, or just taking a break from the fast pace of everyday life. Rooted in the spirit of connection and simplicity, our farm experiences are designed to foster:

  • Family bonding
  • Community building
  • Shared joy and reflection

From corporate retreats to multi-generational families, there’s something here for everyone.

Life can be challenging. We all face stressors—from health and trauma to finances and emotional wellbeing. At Fox Moon Farm, you don’t have to face them alone.

Our personal healing and empowerment workshops are crafted to support adults in navigating life’s complexities. Through guided experiences, supportive community, and practical tools, our workshops help you:

  • Regain confidence and clarity
  • Build emotional resilience
  • Reconnect with your inner strength
  • Move toward peace, purpose, and happiness

Whatever brings you here, you’ll leave with more than you came for.
Let Fox Moon Farm be your place to pause, grow, and find joy.

🐴 A Milestone Worth Celebrating 🐴
Yesterday brought one of those sessions that reminds us exactly why we do this work.

One of our incredible young riders — a 17-year-old who lives with autism and works every day to navigate motor challenges, anxiety, and the world nonverbally — climbed up onto Merlin’s back for a brand-new challenge: threading rings onto cones and hanging them in the trees in the arena.

It looks like a simple game. It isn’t. Every ring placed is a lesson in following multi-step directions, color recognition, fine motor control, and patience — skills that don’t always come easily, practiced here in a way that feels like joy instead of work.

This rider has been part of our Healing with Horses community for over two years, and just recently graduated into our therapeutic riding program. And the growth has been remarkable. Grooming Merlin used to hold no interest at all — now it’s a ritual: twenty brush strokes on each side, every single time, before it’s time to tack up. That kind of focus, that kind of care for another living being, is something we get to witness grow week by week.

Research consistently backs up what we witness on the ground every week: therapeutic horseback riding offers real, measurable benefits for individuals with autism. The horse’s rhythmic, three-dimensional gait mirrors human walking patterns and has a documented calming effect on the nervous system, helping to regulate sensory input and ease anxiety. Physically, riding builds core strength, balance, coordination, and body awareness. Behaviorally and emotionally, studies show reductions in irritability and hyperactivity alongside gains in social communication, focus, and self-confidence — many of these benefits proving durable months after sessions continue.

We couldn’t be prouder of the courage, focus, and heart shown yesterday. And we’re deeply grateful to our team and to Merlin, our steady, patient partner in this work, for making moments like this possible.

🌧️ Some of the best lessons don’t wait for sunshine.

Yesterday, thunderstorms rolled through Fox Moon Farm — and so did a full, busy day of learning. Rain changed our plans, but it didn’t stop the joy. Instead of letting the weather win, we leaned into it, and what unfolded was a day full of creativity, connection, and quiet courage.

There was puzzling in the barn, hands and minds working together while the storm rumbled outside. There was the pure, unfiltered delight of stomping in puddles — because sometimes the best therapy is just being a kid in the rain.

In the tunnel, we harvested alongside the storm’s rhythm, hands in the soil no matter what the sky was doing. And in the community center, clay took shape under focused hands, turning a rainy afternoon into something to be proud of.

Days like this teach our clients something sunny days simply can’t: that they are more capable, more flexible, and more resilient than they realize. When the plan changes, they can still find their footing — on a puddle, on a horse, on a hard day. They learn to adapt, to problem-solve, and to discover confidence in the unexpected.

That’s the heart of what we do here. Nature doesn’t wait for perfect weather, and neither do we. Every kind of day — rain or shine — is a chance to grow. 🌱
