Animal bonding

Agriculture and animal bonding play pivotal roles in enhancing emotional and cognitive well-being by connecting individuals with nature and animals in therapeutic settings. The Animal Bonding Center integrates these elements through innovative programs like Garden Paws and Farm Friends Workshop, where participants engage in gardening and farming activities alongside therapy animals. These programs not only teach sustainable agricultural practices but also utilize the natural benefits of animal manure as fertilizer, promoting a holistic approach to health and environmental stewardship.

In Partnership with Bunny Gurus (#1 Rated Therapeutic Bunny Program in SF Bay Area) & DeepSAFE Technology (Deeper Security and Safer Technology for People and Enterprises).
