The farm is a safe, encouraging enriched space where we facilitate to enhance human health, relaxation and learning.
Whether you are looking for an enrichment filled activity, recuperating, or in the throes of illness, we can tailor a program to suit your needs.
Although originally catering specifically for the disability sector we are now offering services to the public.
In the spaces there is learning,
In the spaces there is time to be,
In the spaces there is the opportunity to find,
In the spaces is where enrichment happens.
