An eight-month hands-on addiction recovery opportunity for men who are looking for a fresh start.
Blanchet Farm is located in Yamhill County, Oregon one hour outside Portland. Its goal is to help men with substance addiction build sobriety, and self-worth, and regain job skills by being responsible for the care of animals, gardens, meals, and facilities.
The farm is successful at saving lives because it offers hands-on therapeutic work, unlike more traditional recovery programs. The farm is free, no insurance is billed, thanks to the generosity of our donors.
