Diane and Bear were not only incredibly giving and kind hosts, but also amazing horse people with a wealth of knowledge about horses, horsemanship, indigenous culture, and sustainable living. The food and accommodation were amazing and we learned so much about western riding and horsemanship. Overall, we would definitely recommend this experience to any individual looking to connect with nature and learn more about horses and indigenous culture.

Amelia was a great help on our ranch. She easily transferred her English riding skill to Western style and helped get many of our horses ready for the upcoming season. she is a very competent horsegirl! Amelia is friendly, gets along well with other volunteers, happy to help wherever she was needed. We really appreciated all she did while she was here! Highly recommend her!

Diane has such a big heart and I felt super appreciated for the work I did. I was so happy to do any tasks because most of them involved horses and the beautiful nature.

Ricky was a great help at the ranch. She did a lot of different horse chores and she became very good at handling horses. Ricky helped with girls who attended our horsecamp and was a stellar supervisor and helper for the camp! She has a big smile and is always willing to help out. We really enjoyed having her!

I've had the best days of my life at the Center. Diane, Bear, their blessed lands and herd of horses are amazing hosts. The lessons your soul can learn here are beyond ordinary. I'm so grateful for being able to come and live so many life growth lessons. If you are an open hearted person, you should definitely come. This is my new safe place ✨🙌🏼
