Leann


Hello friends! I'm Leann, the founder of Bridges of Hope Farm.

As a mother of a special needs child, I've personally experienced the feelings of isolation and exclusion that many families face.

This inspired me to create a community where both children and adults with special needs can feel safe, accepted, and truly be themselves.

At Bridges of Hope Farm, we offer a sensory-friendly environment where individuals can connect with animals, engage in hands-on activities, and build lasting relationships.

Our mission is to bridge the gap of isolation by fostering a supportive community for all ages.

Greg


​Meet Greg, the owner of a local trucking company and the invaluable handyman and builder at Bridges of Hope Farm. When he's not on the road, Greg dedicates his time to maintaining and enhancing our farm, ensuring that everything runs smoothly and safely. His dual expertise in logistics and hands-on craftsmanship exemplifies his commitment to our community and the well-being of our farm.
