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 😅

I can't believe I caught this. What a place!

Our chicken Florence holds court every day in Jake's hay feeder. It is her chosen egg laying spot. He may be the tallest horse in the barn, but he respects her space!

Oh Andis! Is he smart or senile? We may never know...
