Mad Hatter Farm

Having a trach and being on a vent isn’t stopping our girl from living — it’s just part of her journey. She’s still smiling, still thriving, and showing the world that limitations don’t define her.

We loved having Thrive Outside here and their kids! I know our residents here loved them even more 🐷🐐🐴 🐄

As we care for our beloved rescue and senior horses, one of our greatest ongoing needs is horse blankets—especially as we prepare for cooler weather ahead and continue to comfort those in fragile health.

Whether it’s for one of our aging equines who needs extra warmth, or a newly rescued friend adjusting to sanctuary life, these blankets provide comfort, protection, and help reduce stress and weight loss in vulnerable horses.

We’re currently in need of:
• Heavy and medium-weight winter blankets
• Rain sheets
• Any size—used in good condition or new

Your donations help us continue offering compassionate, loving care to these incredible animals who have already been through so much.

If you have any blankets to give, please drop them off at:
📍 1602 Hinton Wilson Rd, Harlem, GA 30814
Or feel free to reach out through our website: madhatterfarm.org

From all of us at the farm—humans and horses alike—thank you for helping us keep them warm, safe, and loved. 💛

As the sun rises over the farm and sleepy little faces start to stir, we’re reminded that every single day is a gift. A chance to show up with grace, give love without limits, and find joy in the simple, quiet moments.

Whether you’re sipping coffee in peace or juggling breakfast chaos, know that you’re not alone. You are seen, loved, and appreciated—for the battles no one sees and the kindness you pour out anyway.

Here’s to a new day full of second chances, deep breaths, and unexpected blessings. 💛

If you need a breath of fresh air, our care farm is open every day from 10am to 5pm, and we’d love to see you this weekend.

Come scratch a pig, dig your toes into the sandboxes, and wander through the garden that grows more than just vegetables—it grows hope. 💛

And don’t forget to grab a bar of our handmade goat milk soap while you’re here—every purchase helps support the heart of what we do.

August is just around the corner, and so is our new farmstand—full of fresh baked goods, handmade treasures, and even more ways to support the mission.

Where life is lived with purpose, and love is always the loudest voice.

As a special needs medical mom, caregiver, nonprofit runner, therapist-scheduler, medical supply manager, and unofficial snack-fetcher, my phone rings like it’s trying to win a Grammy. DFCS. CPA. Doctors. Therapies. Pharmacy. Repeat. It’s a miracle I don’t start answering, “Thank you for calling my brain—please hold.”

But once the chaos quiets… I just want to be mom.
Not “Mom the advocate,” not “Mom the appointment juggler,” not “Mom who hasn’t sat down in 7 hours.” Just mom.

I think I inherited something from my dad — we look like extroverts, but deep down, we’re just introverts. I’ll hug a goat and host a whole fundraiser, but afterwards, I just want to sit on the porch with a blanket, our kids, and maybe a cookie (okay fine, three), disconnect from anymore texts or calls or having to talk.

People ask why I’m not out to dinner or doing all the things. It’s not because I’m not grateful. It’s because after giving every ounce of energy to medical care, therapies, farm chores, and nonprofit needs… my soul needs stillness.
A moment where I don’t have to talk.
Or plan.
Or answer to anyone but the snuggle requests from my crew.

I don’t need big events. I need muddy boots by the door, giggles echoing through the kitchen, and a baby snuggled under my arm.
That’s my happy.

So if you wonder where I am when I’m not online or chatting — I’m right here.
In the quiet.
Where the world slows down and I remember why I do all of this in the first place. ❤️

Today, our hearts are grieving as we prepare to say goodbye to one of our very first rescues — our beloved senior horse, Cash.

Cash wasn’t just a horse. He was family. He came to us broken in body but not in spirit, and over the years, he became the heartbeat of our farm. Gentle with the kids, wise in his old age, and always the first to greet visitors with his soft eyes and calm presence — Cash reminded us daily of why we do what we do.

Now, we are walking him through his final chapter with love and dignity — just like we promised him from the very beginning.

As much as this hurts our hearts, it’s also a financial strain. His final vet care and the cost for a respectful burial are unfortunately not cheap.
And so, we’re reaching out — not just for help, but for community.

If you’ve followed Cash’s story, if he’s touched your heart, or if you simply believe in honoring lives well loved, please consider supporting us through a purchase or donation.

🛒 Shop here: https://madhatterfarms.etsy.com
📍Or visit our little shed store — every candle, soap, or handmade good helps us cover these final costs for Cash.

Your kindness doesn’t just help cover the expense — it helps us carry the weight of this goodbye. Thank you for loving him with us. 💔🐴

We loaded up and headed out for our very first road trip with the trach and vent — destination: Children’s Hospital in Atlanta. Everything was packed, prepped, and we were ready to roll.

But life had other plans.

Halfway there, we had a blowout and had to turn around and head back home. It definitely wasn’t the trip we had in mind, but through it all, we’re just thankful that everyone is safe and all is well in the end.

Sometimes the road detours, but the blessings are still there. 💛
