You only have to compare the photos of my daughter when she began visiting Anam Cara Farm to work with Carla five years ago and the recent photos to see what a difference coming here regularly has made. Between ages 9 and 14, Audrey has blossomed and matured, gaining calmness, confidence and ownership of her own identity from interacting with all of the animals, especially Gus the sheep, and especially with Carla. The hens trust her to pick them up and collect their eggs; the horses to brush their coats and ride them, and the pigs to feed them snacks and give them scratches and hugs. I know being with Carla and helping to care for the animals is a highlight of Audrey’s week. This farm is grounding and serene and even works its magic on parents. I can’t say enough positive things about this special place and the love and therapy shared by Carla and her animal cohabitants at Anam Cara. Thank you.
