Welcome to Hendo Care Farm
Hendo Care Farm is a wellness farm offering farm-based programs and workshops for youth and adults. We use the healing power of animals and nature to nurture emotional, physical, mental and spiritual well-being in our community.
What is a Care Farm?
“Care Farming” is an international term for farms that focus on therapeutic farming practices. We love to utilize the natural healing benefits of the great outdoors, plants and animals because they truly benefit ALL people. We are proud to be an "all inclusive" wellness resource for our community regardless of race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity, religion, disability, immigration status, and/or ability. We celebrate diversity and we strive to make a safe space that is more inclusive and less oppressive to all people.
