Bringing joy and healing through the human - animal interaction & connection.

We are a recognized 501(c)3 non profit organization committed to bring all our rescue horses to the best of their mental, emotional and physical abilities so they can bring joy and healing to people in need.

Our Services

We offer onsite and offsite visits with our horses and minis as well as one on one groundwork sessions at the ranch.

Our horses are used to work with wheelchairs and have been trained in a very respectful and gentle way which translates into calm and peaceful interactions with people. A relaxed horse is a safe and happy horse.

We Believe

That connection with others, be they humans or animals, is essential to well being.

Horses are not disposable & that kindness towards all beings is necessary & inspiring.

Sustainability is key towards the health & happiness of our land, the people, & the animals who live on it.

“Emmanuelle & her team are one the most caring teams I have had the pleasure to interact with. Her work with horses & the people it connects is appreciated & admired. Emmanuelle’s passion for horses and people shows in the care she has for her herd & farm.”

“We have been coming to The Lotus Herd for over a year now. I look forward to it every time. When I’m not with the horses, I miss them. They give me such peace, comfort, &unconditional love. It truly is undescribable.”

Our Facility

Our pastures and stables are accessibly located in Canby, Oregon & border the peaceful Molalla river. Come explore our beautiful farm, meet our horses and minis, listen to the river, and experience the magic that is The Lotus Herd.

Flowers for the Elderly

Our New Project

We have been delivering flowers to the elderly and due to its success, we are planning on doing it more in the summer and are growing our own flowers for this purpose (see details on this project under the Learn section ). Our minis have special vests that can carry the flowers and it brought many smiles to both residents and staff.
