- Children at Utopia Ranch will have the chance to work with some of the finest horsemen and women in the industry. They will participate in horsemanship
clinics and learn what it is to surrender their old beliefs, habits and ideas so that they can look forward to a new and much brighter future.
- Cow working is an intricate part of our program and those youth willing to participate will learn how to effectively work with and care for cattle.
- Each child learns the value of giving by participating in the care of the horses, livestock, and by taking part in our Chuck Wagon Lunch Program.
- Utopia Ranch offers the Chuch Wagon Lunch Program which allows the children to serve lunch to the local senior citizens one day per week. The children at the ranch
give for this program. This is a wonderful opportunity for the children to give something back to our little community that gives so much to them.
- The theatre production at the end of the summer season is another way the children at Utopia Ranch provide something for the community. By entertaining, we provide joy,
family time, and a fun filled evening for folks to come together and see what's been going on here at the ranch!

- The foundational program at Utopia Ranch is the work the children do with our horse angels. Our horses are loyal friends that posses willing hearts and provide the opportunity for children to gain confidence, trust, and the ability to truly let go.
- Children learn responsibility by providing care for their own horse angel. Some of the
horses are rescue horses and have known the same struggles and hardships that the children here have endured.
- Check back soon for detailed information about each one of our horses!

to make and to embrace these changes.
