Through its program THE FARM, located on 51 S. Stage Rd. in Medford Oregon, Kids & Critters benefits children, families and animals in a plethora of ways. The mission of THE FARM is to help children develop life skills such as responsibility, management skills, entrepreneurship and how to properly care for animals all while enjoying the essence of a real farm experience. How does Kids & Critters find the children to help? In this day and age children are overloaded with television, and computer technology. They are becoming out of touch with many of the realities of life. For this reason through its program, THE FARM, Kids & Critters helps every child who visits our farmyard. Each child’s experience is individual and unique. THE FARM uses animals as a catharsis to help children cope with fear, confidence problems, or giving children unconditional love through contact with an animal who holds no judgment against any human being.
