Here at Henden Ryse, our mission is to provide a fun and purposeful experience in an understanding, accepting and safe environment through our activity-based program for people of all abilities. We have carefully developed this program to ensure each participant has an empowering and joyful experience, with the help of our furry family.

Problem solving, patience and empathy

,As a participant, depending on what program you or your group choose, you have the option of spending time with the ponies, (this program focuses on skills such as problem solving, patience, empathy, motor skills, breathing and communication) and/or farm activities such as collecting eggs from chickens when they are feeling generous, feeding and being up close with the sheep, goats, miniature cows and alpacas.
