2012. 

• Thor's Safe Haven started as a conversation between Ellen and Thor 

2013. 

• Mission began to find the right farm.

2014

• Found the perfect farm...needs a lot of work but the location and price is perfect

2015

• Four hours after we closed, my partner and inspiration, Thor, passed away due to cancer complications.

• We currently have 2 residents (Dancer, and Coco)

• We purchased a small tractor to tackle the fields.

• Our fencing was electric tape because it was easily moved so I could continue to increase pastures

• Had the best tan of my life this summer and the pastures were turning green with life!

• We welcomed our new resident, Apache, in May.

• Our "barn" was a ShelterLogic field shelter-most amazing shelter ever, it has withstood hurricane force winds, ice and snow storms and curious horses

• We were able to purchase (thanks to our supportive donors) a Super Poop Scooper from Red Barn - saves us hours of work cleaning fields.

2016

• Thanks to our generous donors, we had a real barn built with 4 stalls

2017

• We upgraded our electric tape fencing with wood fencing - and we now have almost 60 percent of our farm enclosed with 4 board fence!

2018

• We began and completed work on a new shelter in the field in anticipation of new residents.

• We rescued our first horse from a Asheboro Feedlot (Kill Pen) in Asheboro NC.  He is a small quarter horse, well trained, quiet and respectful manner and right now he's called Mr. Toffee.  The Mr. Toffee name just didn't fit him...he is now known as Stormy

2019

• Stormy is Adopted! (January)

• We welcomed Sydney to the Herd in September.
