Sara, the matriarch of our herd, holds this role with clarity and benevolence.  She is an experienced and loving mother and gentle and appreciative of the children who come to work with her in our programs. Sara’s special needs draw out extra loving care from children and adults alike.   Sara’s challenge is her health and stamina.  Sara needs ongoing support from our veterinary team and extra veterinary care.

Horses have needs for Friends, Forage and Freedom. Learn how we strive to meet the horse’s needs at Hoku Lio Farms.

“Each child born at birth has a Bowl of Perfect Light.  If he tends to his light, it will grow in strength and he can do all things – fly with the birds, swim with the sharks, know and understand all things.  If he becomes envious or jealous, he drops a stone into his Bowl of Light and some of his light goes out.  Light and the stone cannot hold the same space.  If he continues to put stones in his Bowl, the Light will go out and he will become a stone.  A stone does not grow, nor does it move.  If at any time he tires of being a stone, all he needs to do is turn the bowl upside down and the stones will fall away, and the Light will grow once more.”
