Family Farm Days

Connection. Empowerment. Community.

Unbridled Spirit hosts four community days annually, specifically for groups and families new to our farm (or haven't been for a while). These events are a vital part of our mission to make animal-assisted connection accessible to everyone. A few hours in nature can offer profound healing and clarity; our hope is that every family leaves the farm as a trusted community resource and a safe space to return to. Our staff and volunteers look forward to these events as a way to build lasting bonds with our neighbors. Most participants arrive with a sense of curious/nervous excitement and leave three hours later feeling totally relaxed, smiling, and supported. ​

​

Our Farm Days are organized into interactive stations, ensuring everyone gets hands-on time with our animals and mentors.

  • The Mini Horse Grooming Station: Step into the pen with our miniature horses! Under the guidance of our mentors, you’ll learn the calming art of grooming and how to safely interact with these gentle creatures.

  • The Barnyard Buddies: Get ready for some smiles! Spend time playing with our friendly goats and llama, or enjoy the quiet comfort of holding a bunny.

  • The Hope Course (A Signature Experience): This is a powerful, miniature session with one of our horses. Led by a facilitator, you’ll identify a personal goal—like "setting better boundaries" or "finding more self-love"—and map out the "pathways" to get there. You’ll then build a physical obstacle course representing your journey. As you lead your horse through, we help you find the metaphors in the moment: Is the horse hesitant at the "boundary" obstacle? Does that reflect your own life? You’ll leave with "golden nuggets" of wisdom to carry home.

  • First Rides: When we have a group of excited little ones, we often offer introductory horse rides—a core memory for many who are meeting a horse for the very first time!

​

More Than Just a Visit

We believe the best way to end a day of growth is with a shared meal. At the end of the event, our staff, volunteers, and guest families sit down together. It’s a time to get to know our neighbors and celebrate the day’s breakthroughs. 

 

Our gift: Every family leaves with a printed family photo to remember their time at the farm.
