TESTIMONIAL
Weston is 8 years old and loves his weekly interaction with Amy and her farm animals. He struggles with ADHD, behavioral issues, and intellectual differences; but being included in Amy’s farm has been a wonderful experience that's allowed him to connect with nature and feel needed and responsible to take great care of the animals. Animals give Weston genuine and immediate feedback when interacting and this has helped Weston understand social rules and norms and how they relate to his everyday experience with siblings, parents, teachers, and peers.
Amy has been a wonderful guide through this process with her calm and caring demeanor and her unique approach that leads a child to new understandings about themselves and the world around them. This couldn’t be experienced through other avenues. I highly recommend Amy and her farm to anyone who wants to experience personal healing, growth, and empowerment in a holistic environment.
— Angie, Weston’s mom
