With nosey goats and a big herd, we have to get creative to be sure Jamie gets all of his medicated feed.

6 years ago today, I brought my Barbie horse home. We've had some crazy times together since then! Some horses you bond with immediately, but others take time to build a great relationship. Jamie is a slow burn, every year he gets better and better 💜

We had the pleasure of hosting a farm-based DnD campaign today! Jeffery very much enjoyed being part of the action 😸

Clenched hands. Tight, raised shoulders. Eyes cast down. Hood up.

That's how many of my prospective clients enter the barn. It's scary to go to a new place, not knowing how to act, what to say. And when you have anxiety, depression, ADHD or autism, everything feels like judgement. So I just start talking. I introduce them to the goats, the horses. I tell them stories and describe personalities. I show them how to say hello to the animals and then I step back. The animals know what to do. Within minutes the shoulders drop, hands unclench and faces soften. Soon a few special attachments are started. Maybe it's Veya's silliness or Spirit's calm. Or maybe it's a few precious Gary snuggles. Smiles appear and the relaxation... Well it's is beautiful.

Animals are pure magic to disregulated nervous systems. That's why animal therapy works. New Leaf Farms is a curated space where animals and humans can work together to find peace, relaxation and fulfilment.

Discover New Leaf Farms, a welcoming space for all ages to connect with horses and explore equine therapy in a safe, inclusive environment.

Nooooo! We have a new furry face popping up around the farm. A little feline face 🙀 I read on FB that someone had dumped cats nearby, and this one is obviously searching for refuge. I was wondering why the cat food was disappearing so fast! It breaks my heart to see these strays go hungry, but the cost of fixing and vaccinating is a bit crippling. Regardless, it can't be left to starve. Let the taming process begin.

Seemingly living the big life, while my animals eat all the income 😅
