Community Outreach
Furvivors Wonderland opens our barnyard to all animals in need, in turn educating humans through their stories. We offer services to area veterans, groups, troops, organizations, students and families in need of therapeutic recreation services with horses and farm animals. We work with area colleges to help students accumulate points and hours towards credits. We offer tours with Girl Scouts of America and Boy Scout troops. We also work with local veterans associations for therapeutic trips and tours.
Animals offer a compassionate approach to healing that no other treatment can offer.
Rescuing them to rescue us. Rescue does not stop.
