Janie Starzewski
Janie not only helps out at our barn each week with her husband, Matt, she has been volunteering full time to get our database system up and running properly. We’d be lost without you, Janie. Thank you for all your hard work!
Remembering Dakota
As you may know, we recently lost our 10 year old goat Dakota, who passed away from cancer. To remember Dakota, a local artist, Marcia Sparks, designed two original prints featuring Dakota with his barn buddies. These prints are now on sale for $15 each and a portion of the proceeds will go directly to supporting Heartland’s animal care and youth programs. Click here to browse all of our animal art.
