Our Vision
In 2006 we purchased property at 54 Park Ave in Randolph NJ (the town where we both grew up). Soulshine Farm was established with the heartfelt intention to be an asset to our local community as a destination where children, adults, and families come to be supported and guided in a safe and loving manner to “tune-in” to their own inner wisdom – their kindness and creativity, to awaken their ability to be self-reliant, appreciate the gifts of nature and the environment, and become aware of our interconnectedness. In 2022, we sold the farm property, and have moved to Clinton NJ. Our vision and mission, for Soulshine Farm, LLC, is still be the same, though beginning in Jan 2023, we will be teaching yoga on Zoom, and in other locations, and we are designing small events, at various sites, to be announced.
Our Mission
We strive to provide creative programs designed to weave mindful activities with “hands-on” experiences such as caring tending of gardens and native plants, nature hikes, practicing yoga, creating arts, working with wood, and appreciating sound and silence.
Participants of all ages will share opportunities to grow, connect, problem solve, and be present. As they choose to live a healthy lifestyle and practice gratitude, these individuals will enjoy a sense of balance, will show more respect and compassion for self and others, and practice mindful “thinking and doing.” Lives change when individuals choose to detach from negative emotions and fear, and open to joy in their own homes, schools, workplaces, their greater communities and maybe even globally.
Our Values
Respect
At all events, expect the use of mindful words and actions toward self, others, the animals, wildlife, and natural environment.
Kindness * Compassion * Empathy
It is most important that participants feel safe, welcomed, cared for, and appreciated for who they are.
Gratitude
We guide participants to take moments to appreciate all they have to be thankful for – people, experiences, opportunities, along with necessities and comforts.
self-reliance
We strive to not answer all participants’ questions or provide for their needs, but instead we encourage them to “think and do”. We teach problem solving and we guide, encourage, and support participants to find answers for themselves.
Humor/Fun
We love to have fun, and to share laughter and joy with others.
Making a difference
We strive to make a positive impact on the lives of participants and encourage them to do the same for others.
Wisdom
We strive to guide others to tune-in and trust their inner wisdom, draw upon their learned experiences, as well as their intuition and logical minds. We enjoy it when all who are present are able to share their own wisdom so that we all learn and grow.
