NOD HILL

This historic homestead in Avon, CT, serves as home to US Horse Welfare and Rescue. Here high atop Nod Hill, tucked away from the public eye, our rescue horses get to be….well, just horses! And here horses and humans can embrace both sunrise and sunset, each serving to amplify the serenity of this bucolic setting and its ability to heal the hearts and souls of both four-legged and two-legged beings.

Schedule your visit to Nod Hill Farm, the home and the sanctuary to many of our rescue horses and our therapeutic wellness programs.

Experience for yourself the profound serenity of the farm as you find solace.

Hug a horse and discover their magic, you’ll never be the same.

Contact us today to become part of our heart-healing community.
