Feature Article

The Fox Moon Farm Project, located in St Stephens Church, provides life changing equine programs and farm day trips to promote healing and wellness for children and teens in a safe and supportive environment.

Their programs include Healing with Horses, Farm Day Trips, and a Community Garden. Day trips immerse children and families in the day-to-day life of a farm and are designed for all ages.
Healing with Horses is an Equine-Assisted Learning program which helps develop life skills in children with complex trauma and those with special needs. The program teaches children how to communicate with their horse through body language, energy and pressure which helps them develop a greater capacity for empathy, social and self-awareness. It is a collaborative effort between a professional horse specialist (an equine specialist), the horses and the client(s).

Together with Thrive Virginia, the Fox Moon Project is creating a Community Garden to grow, harvest and distribute hundreds of pounds of fresh vegetables to families in need and invite you to help. Visit their Ways to Help page for more information.
