How did you discover Ironstone Farm?

I first heard of Ironstone from parents whose children received therapies here when I was a special education teacher.

What is your fondest memory you have from volunteering?

Each week I have a new favorite memory! Seeing the progress children make in therapies, the joy for all riders, and the impact on everyone during the touch therapy program makes it hard to pick one memory.

What does Ironstone Farm mean to you?

Volunteering at Ironstone allows me to interact with amazing horses and the people they impact on a regular basis. It is an amazing place that I am honored to be a tiny part of.

Thank you, Mary, for exemplifying our mission and values in all you do!
