We recently moved to East Haddam, CT and were invited to a fundraiser for the Ray of Light Farm nearby. What an unbelievable place! There are horses, donkeys, tortoises, peacocks, pigs, goats, and much more. These sweet, rescued beings are well cared for and their trainers restore their faith in humankind. The Farm is open to the public and offers lessons, parties, and opportunities to experience them close up.
What they do: The Ray of Light Farm is an animal assisted therapy center and large animal rescue farm located in East Haddam since 2000. The Ray of Light RIders are an equestrian team that participates in the Special Olympics while building self esteem, confidence, and improving motor skill through riding.
I cannot say enough about the wonderful work they do.
