"Joyful Encounters" Gypsy Magic Equine Outreach Program
|
Gypsy horses lend themselves quite naturally to outreach work and the gentle demeanor of the Gypsy horse especially seems to have a unique ability to connect and interact with people of all ages. Our team thoroughly enjoys sharing this “Gypsy Magic” for people to enjoy.
We invite groups to our farm location during mild weather and allow the visitors to gently interact with the horses. We offer a natural and quiet setting amongst meadow land and forest. The atmosphere, the horses, a visit to our garden, and fresh clean mountain air all contribute to a joyful, relaxing, and healthy experience. These visits usually last about 2-3 hours. We never rush through a visit and we allow the horses to naturally share their space with the visitors.

Elder Care Center At-Farm Visits
Our team invites mobile-able local senior nursing homes and assisted living centers to visit us at the farm for joyful in-person encounters for seniors with our Gypsy Horses.
Therapeutic equine encounters have proven to be a powerful antidote for feelings of loneliness, dependency, and isolation often experienced by seniors who are unable to live in their own homes or with family members. This unique social outing to the country is designed to be a gentle and joyful experience. Attendees are encouraged to visit with the horses, take a little guided tour around the farm, and stroll through the Gypsy Magic Garden. Often times, seeing the horses and visiting the farm reminds people of their lives, and they start to share the most amazing stories. It is a wonderful and magical experience for everyone in attendance.

Children's Hospitals and/or Home At-Farm visits
We invite our local Children hospital groups to visit the Gypsy Magic horses at our location for a few hours of fun. These visits prove to be a therapeutic way for the kids to spend a few hours connecting with the horses and visit the countryside.
Children are encouraged to gently interact with the horses, play games, visit the Gypsy Magic community garden, and do an art project.

The Garden Project
With Garden Program Director, David Rude
The Garden Project is a "small but mighty" educational based garden used for health benefits on many levels. The garden is a focus point of several of our programs. It provides food, a place of learning, growth and giving back, and a quiet place to just sit and enjoy the pollinator flower garden. Several programs are offered and held in the garden and it has been designed to be accessible for disabled visitors.
