Sunshine Butterflies ‘Farmability’ program and Farm Animal Therapy sessions assist people of all ages to care for and interact with our farm animals in a safe and supportive environment.
Learning how to communicate with animals using body language and caring for them and helping maintain their living environments, can help improve social engagement, self-esteem and self-efficacy.
The use of proper equipment in our 15-acre space is crucial for ensuring the welfare of our farm animals and improving the working conditions for our members, staff, and volunteers.
At present, essential tasks such as feeding animals, waste disposal, and manure spreading are performed manually using wheelbarrows.
Sunshine Butterflies is raising funds to acquire a Kubota vehicle, which will alleviate physical strain and improve efficiency for our team.
