Walkabout Farm’s Fall Festival

Eight years ago, Jennifer Semach opened Walkabout Farm in Minden. She began offering therapeutic riding programs to provide enrichment for those who are differently abled. This farm, and the important work done in Minden, is the only stable of its kind here in Haliburton County and relies on donations from both businesses and individuals to operate. That's why the farm and its many volunteers and program participants are welcoming the public to their annual Fall Festival, to raise awareness and funds to keep the farm offering the transformative therapy it provides free of charge.CanoeFM visited the farm recently to speak with both Semach and her longest serving volunteer Macy Thompson, to learn more about the activities planned for the Fall Festival and how critical the support is to maintain program delivery there.
