Valor Healing Farms

Military Valor Community Gardens
To provide access to learning about gardening, healthy food options, sense of purpose and camaraderie working together as a community. Hopefully, VHF will have their own healing land space in Ojai to offer initial learning and exploring sustainable gardening and ecotherapy. It is a vision to build community gardens where military and veterans members reside in order to provide this healthy food option as well as wellness and therapeutic experience. Potential sites will be assessed, evaluated and developed with partnerships and collaboration with community and private agencies. Projected goal would be to build one Community Garden per year with ongoing maintenance and support. Possible sites: Ventura County Naval Base, Ventura Vet Center, Community College Veteran Resource Centers, and various veteran residential community centers/homes.

Valor Healing Farms is excited, honored and grateful for this amazing opportunity to have our own Community Victory Garden at The Taft Garden in Ojai. CEF/Taft Gardens is very excited to collaborate with Valor Healing Farms to host a Healing Garden for the community they serve. Look forward to updates and opportunities to donate to this project in the coming year.

Animal Assisted Therapy
Experience an opportunity participating in “Gaining Ground” Equine Retreats. Equine Assisted Learning is a powerful experiential modality exploring and developing healthy relationships and connection to self and others through the guidance and wisdom of horses along with a licensed therapist. Currently, the program will be offered as half/full day retreats. No horse experience necessary, all horse activities are on the ground. Horses offer metaphorical learning, mirroring the human body language and feelings of the participant. Sessions are solution oriented in order for the client to discover the best solutions for themselves. In these sessions, the benefits can include learning new coping strategies, enhancing mental health, wellness and life skills through the relationship with the horse.

This program will also incorporate mindfulness ecotherapy and “Chart Your Change” a Vision Board modality exploring one’s life path. Participation size will be limited. Individual and couple sessions to be announced in the future.

Our horse herd, Gunter, Phoebe and Titus live with their owners: Daniel and Lydia Ruark who have graciously opened up their ranch and horses to heal and serve our program. VHF is truly grateful.
