There’s something incredibly special about the quiet, comforting presence of bunnies. They don’t judge, they don’t ask for anything—yet they know when someone needs a little extra love. Bunny therapy isn’t just a visit; it’s an opportunity to experience deep emotional connection, joy, and healing. Our bunny therapy visits start at $220, offering a gentle and comforting experience for those in need of a little extra joy.
​
For those struggling with stress, anxiety, grief, or loneliness, the simple act of petting a bunny can be incredibly soothing. Their soft fur, gentle nature, and calming energy can lower stress levels, ease anxious thoughts, and bring a sense of peace in ways that words often can’t. Studies have shown that animal-assisted therapy can reduce blood pressure, boost mood, and even help with emotional regulation—proving just how powerful these interactions can be.
​​
But it’s more than science; it’s about the feeling. It’s about watching a child’s face light up with joy, seeing an elderly person in a care home smile for the first time in weeks, or giving someone a moment of peace on a tough day. Bunnies have an incredible way of reaching people, offering unconditional comfort in a world that often feels overwhelming. Bunny therapy is especially beneficial for children and adults with disabilities, providing a sensory-friendly, comforting experience that fosters connection and emotional well-being.

Let us share the magic of these incredible animals with you—because sometimes, all it takes is a soft nuzzle to make a world of difference.

What To Expect
Guests can then engage in hands-on activities, such as petting and feeding the bunnies, fostering a sense of connection and joy. Fresh veggies will be provided to feed and interact with the bunnies during our visit.
​
Our full set up of fencing, bunny pen decor, and a turf mat for indoor set ups are all included. A staff member will also be present to monitor bunny interactions, to educate about the bunnies and answer any bunny related questions. ​​
"The Farm Friends has been life changing for us. We live in a multi trauma and disability layered household. Spending time with animals is essential for mental health and having a mobile option takes stress out of the planning. Its fun, enriching and very peaceful which means so much to us. Julie is also so kind, compassionate, accommodating to different needs and wonderful to interact with. Very organized set up and tear down. In Spring/Summer its a monthly necessity at our place. Its brought us so much joy. Thank you Farm Friends!"

"Farm Friends is so amazing. They came our school to help our students to help alleviate student stress from AP Exams. Farm Friends brought our entire school community together. The animals touched many hearts of our students and staff. We have had many requests for Farm Friends to come back to our school for many other events. I will totally be requesting them again and highly recommend them. Thanks :) "​
