The Rocking Tree Farm uses sustainable agriculture and farm life activities to promote positive mental health in a safe, sensitive, and personalized environment, ‘growing memories’ focusing on those affected by trauma, including veterans, military, and their families.
Homesteading for Healing
This holistic mental health and wellbeing initiative is based on a European model called “Care Farms.”
The research shows that gardening, working with animals, volunteering, and eating clean/whole foods can improve the negative symptoms that accompany mental health and physical health issues. To offer many options, we provide volunteering, socializing, education in group workshops, and individual/group life coaching.
As each person has a unique history, complexity of issues, and specific goals, we help you create an individual growth plan to meet your needs. Any place you want to start is a good place to begin easing your symptoms and working towards a healthier life. You can easily start with a farm tour or 30-minute consultation or register for an education workshop.
