Volunteering
It takes a lot of people power to keep things running at New Freedom Farm. Volunteers are used to help with much of the day-to-day physical labor needed to keep the farm running smoothly.
The volunteer program is designed to bring both volunteers and veterans who have a deep love and respect for horses (especially mustangs) together with horses that need love and respect.
