About this Organization

Sunnyside Farms is a robust non-profit based in the Shields Valley of rural SW Montana.

We specialize in early childhood learning, youth empowerment, suicide awareness/prevention, senior moments, and assisting people with an Autistm Spectrum Disorder by giving everyone a safe place to find peace and joy. Our staff, volunteers, farm animals are here to help evolve basic concepts such as: mindfulness, empathy, empowerment, strength, skill, independence, and resilience so that people can relate to and discover their own life-changing experiences. At the farm, every moment of every day is about Happiness and Health through Wellness and Behavioral Health. ​

Amongst the myriad of programs, we offer:
1. Educational camps for children and their families;
2. A venue for local youth to learn responsibility, work-ethic, empowerment and accountability;
3. Retreats for women battling cancer;
4. Group visits and camps for senior citizens;
5. Vocational and nonprofit operations internships for adults of all ages; and,
6. A safe environment for people faced with varied social and emotional challenges.

We provide guided support for children to learn to care and share; for youth to learn coping, social, and problem-solving skills which are critical to thrive in today's ever-changing world; skill sets for young adults to take with them into the job market and memory care for people who are challenged cognitively.

Your support will help us to:​
1. Promote behavioral health and wellness through empowerment opportunities in the extraordinary good company of Fjord Horses and other loving farm animals;​
2. Provide structured art, education, and farm-related experiences for those who are socially, emotionally, mentally, and physically challenged in life;​
3. Serve as an innovative model for best practices in behavioral health and wellness for people living in rural Montana communities, especially for those at-risk and with special needs;
4. Provide a location for at-risk kids to come for empowerment, skill-set building, enrichment, suicide awareness, and prevention; and
5. Offer a critically needed sense of economic and emotional relief for parents in rural communities whose children crave healthy outdoor activities, empowerment, and farm-based learning.
