During the last decade it has become widely accepted and researched that animal ownership, contact, and assistance in therapy and education have a multitude of positive effects on human beings. Interacting with animals positively influences individual's social interactions in ways that include trust and empathy building, aggression reduction and management, and positive mood shifts. At the Jim Marshall Farms Foundation, we provide our visitors with the opportunity to interact with animals and reap the benefits that creating a special, caring relationship with an animal can bring. The animals greatly look forward to the company and they benefit from the gift your loving visits bring them as well.
