Ravenwood Farms, in Salem, invites the community to Horse Wellness Wednesdays, a free monthly gathering where participants connect with and care for the farm’s charity horses. Held from 6 to 7:30 p.m. on the last Wednesday of each month, the event is open to ages 9 and up.

The evening begins with a group meditation and grounding session before attendees offer hands-on wellness to the horses, including massage, reiki, red light therapy, sound bowls and more. No prior experience is needed—guests are guided every step of the way in learning how to safely interact with and support these gentle animals.

The horses at Ravenwood Farms serve riders with special needs, and this event offers a heart-centered opportunity for the community to give back. Participants are encouraged to wear closed-toe shoes and bring an organic treat for the horses, such as apples, bananas or carrots.

Donations are welcome, but never required. Advance registration is recommended, as space may be limited.

Location: 125 Bassett Rd. For more information or to register, visit www.TheRavenWoodFarms.org/wellness-offerings.
