Please note: The Selah Carefarm is a therapeutic space for those experiencing traumatic grief. We welcome families from all socioeconomic classes, all and no religions, all regions around the world, and all ethnic backgrounds. However, we have many open waterways that are unfenced and our animals roam freely; thus, this is not a safe environment for children under the age of 7. Please be sure that all guests who register meet this minimum safety age. And, for the safety of our animals and yours, please do not bring pets to the Carefarm.
**The carefarm is an evidence-based therapeutic community for people to receive counseling and participate in remembrance rituals, connect with others (humans and non humans) who have suffered loss, and find space for their grief in a safe natural environment. At this point, we are too busy for visitors who want to come to meet the animals or who are curious about what we are doing. We are not able to accomodate any unscheduled visits under any circumstances. You must plan – in advance – and register with a counselor.
**Before requesting availability for a visit, please note our counselors and guides are only able to see traumatically bereaved people. This includes people who have lost a child at any age by any cause, as well those who have lost a primary loves one to murder, suicide, prolonged illness and other catastrophic deaths.
If you are the bereaved person seeking services, please fill out the form below. We work directly with the traumatically bereaved individual/family only.
