Hey! We need hay! Winter is almost here so we need your help to make sure all of our residents are warm and well fed through these harsh months. It is VERY EXPENSIVE but we know we can do it with your help! ❤️ donorbox.org/mmfs-2025-ha...

After an evening of rain that we desperately needed the horses enjoyed a day out on some softer ground. Fall is coming in quickly, winter coats are beginning to come in and each horse is beginning to feel a little fuzzy. We allow all of our horses here to get nice and fuzzy before we blanket them.

Text reads “Its Wishlist wednesday and the only thing on our wishlist this week is HAY! We need to raise $25,000 to feed our residents through the winter, so please consider a donation if you can.”

Little Button grazing in the late summer sun. It's October now so there won't be many grazing days left this year. That means Button and her friends need your help to keep their bellies full through the winter. Please consider donating to our hay drive today! donorbox.org/mmfs-2025-ha...

Olivia is having a wonderful fall day bobbing for apples 🍎🍎. Clearly, the best way to get apples is to stand in your water trough and put your face all the way in. Pigs are so fun to care for, most of the time they just fearlessly take on life and literally jump right in
