Who We Are: A place where rescued horses rescue people.
At Wild Pine Equine Sanctuary and Retreat Center, we are a place of healing, compassion, and transformation. Nestled in a peaceful sanctuary, we are dedicated to providing a forever home for horses that have faced hardship, offering them safety, love, and care for the rest of their days. But we are more than just a sanctuary for horses; we are a place where the wisdom and presence of these gentle creatures create profound healing for humans.
Our vision is to foster a world where the spirit of horses meets the heart of healing, guiding individuals toward peace, strength, and empowerment. At Wild Pine, we believe in the power of connection — between humans and horses, between hearts and hope. Through equine-assisted therapy, workshops, and retreats, we help individuals of all ages rediscover their inner strength and resilience, while finding a renewed sense of purpose and joy.
Who We Serve
We serve a diverse community of individuals, including children, teens, and adults who have experienced trauma, loss, or emotional distress. Whether they are seeking healing from past experiences, a safe space to reconnect with themselves, or a supportive environment to build resilience, Wild Pine offers a nurturing, peaceful sanctuary for their journeys.
Our sanctuary welcomes those in need of healing — individuals who have faced adversity, and those who are seeking a deeper connection to themselves and the world around them. With the guidance of our compassionate horses, we provide personalized therapy sessions and workshops designed to promote self-discovery, healing, and empowerment.
At Wild Pine, we serve individuals and families who are ready to transform their pain into hope, their wounds into wisdom, and their hearts into empowered souls. We believe that, through the quiet guidance of our equine companions, every person has the potential to heal, grow, and step into a brighter, more hopeful future.
Together, we can create a world where every horse is loved, and every human has the opportunity to heal.
Vision:
To nurture a world where the gentle spirit of horses meets the heart of healing. At Wild Pine, we dream of a place where horses find their forever home, and humans, big and small, find the peace, love, and strength they need to begin anew. Through the quiet wisdom of our equine companions, we envision a future where trauma transforms into hope, and broken hearts mend into empowered souls."
Mission:
At Wild Pine Equine Sanctuary and Retreat Center, we offer a haven for horses who’ve known hardship, giving them a place of love and safety for the rest of their days. Here, we also invite those who have faced trauma—children, teens, and adults—to find their own space for healing. With the help of our compassionate horses, we guide people through journeys of self-discovery, resilience, and empowerment. From one-on-one equine therapy sessions to workshops that inspire growth and connection, our sanctuary is a place where hearts are soothed, and lives are forever changed. We believe in the magic that happens when humans and horses walk together towards healing.
