Kristy

Kristy is the founder of Flash Farm. Through her own personal experiences and experience as a social worker, Kristy saw a need for an alternative form of therapy. Kristy saw the positive impact that animals can have on a person and the way animals can break down barriers. This ignited a passion in Kristy for Animal-Assisted Therapy. After a lot of research Kristy decided to start Flash Farm to provide an opportunity for people to receive the love, care and kindness that animals can offer.
