Programs

We offer camps to children from all demographics with a focus on giving our camps to children in foster care, as they, like our horses, are put in their situation by no fault of their own. I am a Certified Facilitator in experiential life skills development where the horse is the teacher. These experiential courses build skills in teamwork, connection, compassion, and confidence.

We had our first camp of nine kids in July of 2019. It was phenomenal to see it come together and be so successful. The kids were ecstatic, learned a lot and we got some great testimonials, enforcing the fact that we are on the right track.

We have also partnered with Fostering Great Ideas and plan to raise awareness and funds together in the month of May – Foster Care Awareness month – to provide camps for children in foster care this summer.

We Offer:

  • 6, 8 & 12 week Skills Development Programs
  • Our new 5 week Family Herd Series
  • Field trips & day camps for schools, churches and more

Testimonials

Daisy Chain was an awesome program for both myself, as a volunteer, and my 11 year old daughter, as a participant. My daughter had a great time learning about animals, nature and why it's important to respect both as well as her peers. I highly recommend Daisy Chain to anyone and everyone!

....

Daisy Chain Sanctuary is dear to my five children and I with special needs; to find an accepting place that is healthy and fun, therapeutic and challenging is very important to us. We are blessed to have Daisy Chain Sanctuary in our lives!

....

Working with the kids at Daisy Chain was a wonderful experience.  I was able to see growth within many of the children from day 1 & day 6.  I saw some find their voices and some overcome fears.  Some children found ways to connect with humans after learning to connect with the animals.
