Mitten Misfits Farm Sanctuary works closely with my son, and his job coaching organization to give him an opportunity to volunteer on the farm and give him valuable job experience. My son has always wanted to work on a farm but his developmental disability gives him a communication delay and anxiety. The owner is very flexible and works with our availability and with my son’s needs. Everything is organized and each volunteer knows what they are expected to do and very clear how to do it. But most of all, the owner has cultivated an environment that is peaceful, friendly, and very accepting. My son is thriving in this environment. He gets up every work day, excited to go to work. He feels valued for his strengths and accepted as a good worker. And every day his confidence grows. As a result, Mitten misfits farm Sanctuary gets a very dedicated, hard worker and my son gets to work where he has always wanted to be. Thank you!
