IN MEMORY

The Wisdom of the Herd

Together, these horses create a powerful environment where participants can learn about communication, boundaries, trust, leadership, and connection.

Each horse brings a unique perspective and teaches different lessons.

At HERD Foundation, the horses are not just part of the program.

They are part of the HERD.

And through their presence, patience, and wisdom, they help guide the journey of every person who comes to the farm.

Miss America, currently 33 years of age, keeps a watchful eye over the rest of the herd, and is known for her wisdom and intuition.

Satillo River

In Loving Memory
(02/28/1995 - 11/01/2022)

A retired racehorse, Satillo River, lived a very adventurous life! He enjoyed being a hunter jumper, fox hunting, and an all-around rockstar at Pine Creek Sporting Lodge in Okeechobee, Florida. Recently, he has been reunited with his family and enjoys being part of the HERD. Satillo touched the hearts of many and is greatly missed by both his horse and human herd. 

At HERD Foundation, each horse plays an important role in the work we do. Horses are incredibly aware of their environment and of the people around them. Their presence, personalities, and natural instincts help guide many of the lessons participants experience on the farm.

Every member of the herd offers something unique.
