Puzzle Ranch Rescue Center
Our mission and our dream for the near future is to obtain 200 acres or more to start building Puzzle Ranch. We hope to open the first ranch in Texas and as time progresses, open one in every state in the United States and eventually every country. We will be building with as much recycled products as possible to help keep things out of the landfills. The ranch will utilize wind and solar power for utilities. We would grow our own organic food, raise our own livestock. Training would be provided for completing high school eduction, sewing, cooking, child care, CPR, computer science, animal care, medical assistant, metal work and other careers. All of this would take place in a safe supportive environment for a person to be able to start the healing.
The ranch would have long term and short term cabins for domestic violence victims to start to heal emotionally, physically and psychologically. All while in a safe place. If a domestic violence victim and their children are given a chance to heal and learn to take care of themselves all while in a safe, supportive environment, we help them to break the cycle and lessen the chance of them returning to their abuser.
It would have 2 dormitory type facilities with house parents for children who have been living on the streets because their homes were not safe. We would provide education, training, counseling, hope and support. This program would also have long term and short term available.
Our final phase would be our animal rescue. Providing safe, loving homes to abandoned and abused animals. Some of our fur friends will be able to be trained to help others and others may not. Either case, we will try to find good loving homes for all and the ones that do not get adopted will have a home on the ranch for the rest of their lives.
Each ranch will have at least 1 store that will help provide financial support and also help the local communities.
- Holistic Center with a sliding fee scale to be able to assist all individuals. We hope to be able to offer all different modules of alternative therapies.
- Art Center for local area artists and items handcrafted by the residents of the ranch.
- Organic grocery for the local organic farmers to be able to sell their produce. This is also were the Puzzle Ranch will be able to sell their excess produce.
- Gift shop for local area individuals to sell their handcrafted supplies.
- Social Service to help those that have temporarily fallen down on their luck. This will also be used as a intake station for our Ranch
- Organic cafe and herbal tea room, for relaxation and socializing.
