Therapeutic Farm Animals

Meet Our Furry Friends

At New Ground, our animals are more than part of the landscape — they're part of the experience. Our donkeys, goats, and farm dog Hazel bring joy, connection, and a little extra personality to the property, offering the calm and comfort that only time with animals can.

Time with animals is time to heal

For the young adults we serve, a quiet moment with a donkey or a walk alongside Hazel can lower the guard, ease anxiety, and open the door to connection. Our farm animals are gentle teachers of patience, trust, and presence.

Beau & Buck's Reading Club

Beau and Buck are some of the most gentle and curious members of the farm. Often the first to greet guests, they love attention and are always nearby, quietly taking in everything going on around them.

​

Stay tuned for our next Reading Club day at the farm.

Animal Assisted Learning Experiences

For the young adults we serve, a playful moment with a goat or a walk alongside our farm dog, Hazel, can lower the guard, ease anxiety, and open the door to connection. Our farm animals are gentle teachers of patience, trust, and presence.
