About the event

Our volunteers tell us that spending time with the donkeys is like therapy.  When we are out in the barn with them they capture our hearts and everything seems right in the world.  The Donkey Experience  allows others to enjoy these endearing creatures as much as we do.  We start in the barn and give a short talk about miniature donkeys and go over how to work safely around them.  Each person will be assigned their own donkey to brush and handle for the session.  We will take the donkeys on a short hike around the farm or on our trails.  Participants will have the chance to interact with our foals or young donkeys for a few minutes at the end of the session.  There will be several FHF staff/volunteers assisting during the event.  You can be involved as little or as much as you are comfortable with.  Groups are limited in size (6 people) with safety in mind.  Minimum age is 18.  Children 12 to 17 years of age are allowed to participate if accompanied by an adult (no charge for the adult).  The child and adult will share a donkey.   Please register in the name of the adult.  We recommend wearing sneakers or boots.  Facilities and wash station are on site.  If you are interested in a private session for a group or your friends and family please contact Kim Milikowski at 860.729.6310 or kim@fosterhillfarm.com.
