You will be surrounded by our playful and loveable adult goats along with two of our sweet and calm sheep with a view of our duck pond! Our certified yoga instructor will guide you through a variety of poses to help reduce stress and feel rejuvenated, while our trained animal handlers will quietly engage our goats and keep you safe. Ages 12+ only.

Have you ever caught a chicken? To begin this experience, you will be catching your very own chicken to bring into your session inside our barn! As you move through your poses, the chickens will be roaming freely around you and you will end your session by bringing them back to their home. All ages.

Instead of doing yoga with our animals, you will immerse yourself in the tranquility of nature where you will glide through your poses overlooking the ranch with a view of the critters from afar. This option is perfect for those who may be more comfortable near our animals from a safe distance while experiencing yoga in our great outdoors. All ages.

Dreamcatcher™'s Time on the Land Program will allow families time inside the animal pens during scheduled, guided tours to get up close and personal with their favourite critter!
Stop by the Snack Shack to pick up your Dreamcatcher™ merchandise, a dozen eggs, or to rehydrate! Are you feeling cooped up? Are you needing to get into nature with your family? Book your time to come out and visit our animals for a breath of fresh country air on the 40-acre Dreamcatcher™ property! Bring a small picnic to enjoy with your family, walk the trails on the property, or have a meet and greet with our amazing animals! Get your closed-toed shoes on and get out of the city! Booking times are only available outside of Dreamcatcher™ client sessions. Did you know that Time on the Land emerged in the spring of 2020 to support individuals struggling with having to be socially distant from friends and family? Founder and Director, Eileen Bona, opened the Dreamcatcher™ Nature Assisted Therapy property to let people connect to the animals and land during Covid-19. "Did you know the animals you meet are Dreamcatcher™ Human Services Assistance Animals? If you want to learn more about the animals you will be visiting and complete a fun quiz,
