About Us
About Our Sanctuary
Horseback riding gives individuals with special needs the freedom that defies the disabilities.
When riding, students are free from braces, crutches, wheelchairs, and disabilities.
Participants are physically and emotionally challenged to develop relationships with farm animals that support therapy in a natural environment.
These animals deserve a safe and loving home.
Your support helps us to provide for the animals and the participants of our farm. Your contribution not only feeds and cares for the animals. It provides services and equipment for disabled individuals and at risk youth. By fostering relationships with the animals we strengthen our veterans, our youth and our community.
Enrollment fees pays for food for the animals, veterinary care, and helps with therapeutic riding programs throughout the season.
Therapeutic Riding
Theraputic riding relaxes muscles, builds confidence and self-esteem. Participants are paired with a certified riding instructor and two side walker volunteers. Riding sessions are in 30 minute increments. Students will learn balance, general horse care, and grooming of the animals, and how to form a bond with their equine partner.
Sensory Trail
Freedom Ride Farms is located on 35 acres. Escape into a fun-filled trail system that provides sensory stations along the way. Students will build problem-solving skills, muscle development and control with increased coordination.
Farm Animal Time
If a horse is just too much for the student right now. Freedom Ride Farms offers assistive support through building relationships with goats, alpacas, miniature pigs, miniature ponies, cats and dogs. Students learn about caring for and grooming the animals. They also learn about animal behavior and how to make the most of their relationship with their farm animal friend.
Summer Camps
Summer camps utilize the entire farm experience with pigs, cows, horses, goats, alpacas, peacocks, and small domestic pets. Summer camps are week long day camps with two to three hours of riding, gardening, swimming, arts and crafts, etc.
