Founded in 1978 with the goal of helping improve the lives of those with disabilities. Equine Therapy for People with Disabilities
Fieldstone Farm is recognized as one of the largest and most respected therapeutic riding centers in North America. Founded in 1978 with the goal of helping improve the lives of those with disabilities, the organization is breaking new ground in the field of equine the

rapy and changing many lives in the community. Each year, as a result of the dedication of more than 200 volunteers and 40 horses, Fieldstone helps nearly 1,000 students achieve what they often thought was impossible. Located on 45 acres in Bainbridge Township, Fieldstone Farm serves clients from all over Northeast Ohio. Many travel miles to experience Fieldstone's unique and worthwhile programs. Students range from age two to seniors and have a wide range of disabilities from cognitive impairments such as Down Syndrome or Autism Spectrum Disorder to physical disabilities such as Cerebral Palsy and spinal cord injuries as well as mental health issues and sensory impairments. All are interacting with our horses while they improve their balance, strengthen muscles, work on educational goals, advance communication skills, increase their self-esteem and gain confidence. Fieldstone Farm is a welcoming community with a tradition of inclusivity
to those of all ages, races, genders, economic backgrounds and abilities. How Horses Make a Difference
For children and adults with disabilities, the equestrian experience is life changing. No other therapeutic recreational opportunity benefits so many aspects of a disability in such a holistic way. Imagine the sense of confidence and independence a rider who uses a wheelchair feels on a horse. Think of a student's muscles growing stronger as he brushes his horse. Watch the emotional connection a rider develops with her horse, instructor, volunteers and fellow students. At Fieldstone Farm, these kinds of "Little Victories" happen every day. It's a special place where riders of all ages benefit physically, cognitively and emotionally from a wide variety of horse experiences tailored to their needs by a trained team of horses, instructors and volunteers. Fieldstone offers private and group lessons and collaborates with a number of school districts, including Beachwood, Cleveland, Mayfield, Solon, and Shaker Heights, among others. It also works with a number of organizations to develop programming for specialized groups including the Veterans Administration, The Gathering Place and Hospice of Western Reserve.

Please join us in wishing Happy Birthday to our sweet Summer, born on our farm four years ago today! Our horse, Rose, is her mom and she was a surprise and aptly named Summer’s Surprise. Check out some of these pictures over the years including one for her first birthday. She is a sweet girl -- calm, smart and willing to learn. She’s become an experienced carriage driving horse and is learning to carry a rider. Summer has been handled (and adored) by many people in her four years at Fieldstone and we anticipate her being a wonderful addition to our herd.

A big thank you to the Cleveland Police Mounted Unit for coming to the farm last week with their horses, Clayton, Leonard, Max and Zen, to visit with our Summer Campers! All four horses were large draft breeds with the largest being 18 hands. Our campers and our team loved watching these gentle giants in action.

As we grow our equine herd, we are looking for quiet, steady horses that are sound at the walk and trot when ridden. Must be between five and 20 years old and ridden recently. We are especially in need of larger bodied horses, between 15-15.3 hands, such as Haflingers, draft crosses, or similar breeds, to accommodate our larger riders. Our horses are turned out in a herd setting, so our horses need to be well-mannered in a group. Would your equine friend enjoy a second (or third) career helping students with physical and emotional challenges achieve their goals? Please fill out our horse inquiry form on our website if you are interested, https://www.fieldstonefarm.org/support-us/donate-a-horse/
