Giving Back

Stowe Mountain Ranch is the founder of Vermont Bound, a retreat program for inner city teens from The Boys and Girls Clubs of Boston. Several times each year we donate our property, and host at no expense, 13-17 year olds who come to ride our wonderful horses, climb our mountains, swim in our beautiful waterfalls, drive our antique farm tractors, take yoga and feel safe and loved. We also run a therapeutic riding program for cancer patients/survivors in conjunction with the annual Stowe Weekend of Hope. A high percentage of these are breast cancer patients and survivors and we love sharing our horses with these beautiful women. We also donate an entire weekend to Boston Children’s Hospital/Yoga Reaches Out. Finally, we are a member of the Stowe Farmers Market and support it by bringing our horses many sundays for visitors to experience them.  For our unique contribution to our community we were recently featured in Stowe Magazine and seen on HGTV. We believe we give back more relative to our size than any yoga retreat destination in the U.S.
