Medina Creative Therapy Ranch

🐴 Spring in Ohio means one thing… the weather can’t make up its mind.

One day it’s warm, the next it’s chilly—but our horses at the ranch are making the most of every moment outside! Nothing like a little time in the outdoor arena to stretch their legs, run around, and enjoy the fresh air.

Safe to say the herd is ready for spring… whenever it decides to stick around. 🌤️

🐴 Something special is always happening at Medina Creative Therapy Ranch!

Our programs create a supportive, hands-on environment where individuals with disabilities can learn, grow, build life skills, and explore meaningful opportunities. From therapeutic riding sessions to daily ranch activities, every experience is designed to help riders gain confidence and independence.

To help keep the ranch running and our horses well cared for, we’ve put together an Amazon Wishlist with items we use throughout our programs.

Every gift helps us continue creating safe, meaningful experiences for our riders and caring for the horses who make it all possible. 🐎

A lot of care goes on behind the scenes at the ranch 🐴

Before the lessons begin, our crew puts in the work to make sure the arena is safe, clean, and ready for the day. From grooming the footing to general upkeep, every detail matters when it comes to creating the best experience for our riders and horses.

It takes a team to keep things running smoothly at the Therapy Ranch — and we’re grateful for the dedicated hands that help care for this space every day.

More than just horses around here 😉📚

Our Therapy Ranch crew swapped their boots for library cards yesterday and spent some time exploring the shelves, finding new reads, and enjoying time together in the community.

Strikes, spares, and lots of smiles 🎳💙

Our crew traded in boots for bowling shoes and had an absolute blast hitting the lanes! From friendly competition to big celebrations after every roll, it was a great day of teamwork, encouragement, and FUN.

Community outings like this help build confidence, strengthen friendships, and create memories that last far beyond the final frame. 💪✨

Way to roll, team! 🎳
