As October comes to a close, our hearts are full — from the joy of our Fall Festival to the quiet, peaceful moments shared with our horses. 🐴🍁

Before we trot into November, we’re wishing everyone a safe, fun, and spook-tacular Halloween! 🎃👻 Don’t forget to share your costumes (and your horses’ too!) — we’d love to see them! 🧡

Our Taking the Lead family is heartbroken by the loss of client Hailey Miller, whose gentle spirit and joyful presence touched everyone who knew her. Hailey had a special way with the animals — she loved spending time with Bolt the bunny and Porque the pig, and the feeling was clearly mutual. Her warmth, smile, and determination brightened every visit to the farm. She will be deeply missed, and our hearts go out to the Miller family during this difficult time.

Hailey’s legacy continues through Hailey’s Wish, a foundation created by her family to build inclusive playgrounds where children of all abilities can play side by side, sharing belonging and joy.
