Many folks don’t speak the same language as many farmers. Clinicians may not understand growing and harvest cycles and why farmers cannot be at appointments at certain times. AIT is a must-do training for therapists working with farmers.

Welcome, we are thrilled that you are here. Our goal is to help farmers thrive.

We provide counselling services to farmers and their families. We also provide certified agriculture informed training to therapists and social workers as well as speaking engagements and a host of other resources and supports. Thanks for stopping by.

Our Agriculture Informed Therapy™ (AIT) online training introduces therapists and students to the unique needs and treatment strategies for farmers, their families, and their communities. It is nationally recognized and provides continuing education credits.
