New beginnings often spring out of painful endings. Who has not seen a person lose a job, only in time to discover a career? Or lose a relationship, only in time to discover a true and lasting romance? Or lose an exaggerated ego, only to discover an authentic life?
Each day take a moment to acknowledge all the beauty around you and give thanks for all the glorious species of animals we are so fortunate to share this planet with.
The Donkey Whisperer Farm ® is a blessing. We will thank GOD for this farm forever as our farm is GOD’s blessing. GOD bless the farmer and his/her way of life!
Farmers work hard! No vacation time, no sick days, no time off.
Every seed we plant will grow food. Food for animals and humans to consume.
The land will reward us when we take the time to give back.
Everything starts with the soil
The farmer has a big office
Farmers prepare for spring in the winter
The farmer must be a planner and very careful with their budget
Farmers get dirty every single day
Farmers breathe fresh air every single day, rain, snow, wind or hot
Farmers love to share
Farmers pray and plant
What to Consider?
Vision and Values: A farm is personal, a vision and values of the individuals who start the farm. Farms are dying each and every day. Small farms need another income to keep running this is a fact. Farming is very difficult to make a profit as the overhead is greater than the fiscal rewards most years.
Place Matters: We must do our homework to ensure the part of the world we purchase land has everything we need to grow the food source. Do your homework.
Education and Experience: Preparation, knowledge, and training are essential. But so is being able adapt quickly to the unexpected, to persevere when factors beyond one’s control conspire against you, and knowing how/when/what/where to expend time, energy, and resources. Prayer is very important. God is in control 100%.
Managing risk: It is helpful to plan careful to manage risk through diversification, financial management, and the ability to withstand a couple of bad years.
Wait for the funding to come before you grow your farm! We advise to grow your business in phases. Do not borrow money unless it is absolutely need. Be patient and wait.

After surviving a life threatening motor vehicle accident I was stuck in bed and a chair for most of three years. I attended physical therapy for three years, two and three times a week. I wore my horse riding gloves to the gym when I lifted weights so I could see myself riding again. People are visual learners too! Select GOD Created A Miracle For Meto read about my journey.
Mind Over Pain And Sorrow:
I had a choice to give up or trust GOD!
My husband of twenty-four years made the choice to keep our little farm and not give up. He is an amazing man.
My husband gave me audio of the bible to listen to when I was not strong enough to lift the bible and read it. Select Audio bible.
Our marriage grew stronger not weaker during this time of pain and suffering.
I learned to not worry about the little things. Pay attention to the good things in life. The news, social media is geared to negative attention. I refused to put any negative information in my head. The pain was constant and this in itself was enough negative energy.
Love Life. Share love, I learned to Blog and I gave free donkey training lessons to people who owned donkeys all over the world. I wanted to continue to use my brain and help others. This is something the bible teaches us. Stop thinking about ourselves and help others. Not easy to do in the beginning but the more you do it the better you feel.
Stop feeling bad about everything I failed at. Let it go! Look forward as GOD gave us eyes in the front of our head for a reason. Learn from our past mistakes but move on!
Meet people, rejoice, laugh, smile and understand that I am lucky. Many people had it much harder than me.
Live my life with a gratefulattitude. Surround myself with positive people and energy.
Dream! Never stop dreaming it is never to late to live your life with passion.
GOD bless you and your family two and four-legged!
Keep moving forward helping one another as this is what we were created to do move! Just like the butterfly; some of us fly a little faster, some a little slower but all of us need one another to …

“Horses Dream Of Being Trained The Way A Donkey Demands To Be Trained” Melody Johnson, Trainer.
Melody teaching via skype and Dropbox worldwide. Melody teaches the owner how to train virtually worldwide! Why? Donkeys are smart not stubborn. Training the owner to train the donkey saves donkeys lives from auction, sales and slaughter. We purchased our twenty acre farm in Sequim, WA with nothing on the land. Finally after everything is competed for the donkeys and horses we are going to build a home. Living in a 5th for two years now. Our home begins in 2017, thank you Jesus.
