A Place for Teamwork
Our vision is to create a community-based equine and animal-assisted therapy center where every individual can be offered the opportunity to connect with horses or other animals in a therapeutic environment. We believe animals can help bring out the best in everyone, and help us connect with our natural joy, strength, and purpose.
In 2014 a small group of people and horses began offering Equine-Assisted Therapy services on a leased facility in Mesa County, with the vision of creating a place that could serve the entire surrounding community with Animal-Assisted Therapy services. Now Harmony Acres has grown to include over 100 volunteers, 11 staff and contracted agents, 15 horses, 10 ponies, and a variety of other small animals, all with the mission of creating a healing place for animals and people. In the past 10 years, over 2400 individuals have benefitted through professionally facilitated therapeutic sessions joining people and animals at our facility.
In 2017, Harmony Acres was able to purchase it's own property in Loma, Colorado, which includes 24 acres, animal facilities, large indoor arena, small covered arena, and built-in offices, waiting room, and restrooms, all designed to be inclusive and handicap-accessible. We continue to work diligently to add needed features for our animals, clients and staff. Our next project phase includes adding a small animal barn and landscaping to offer better shelter to our residents and visitors.
