Which Mel Upstages Which?
Our dear friends from the Adult Day Center of Somerset County (ADCSC) have not been able to visit the farm for the past 9 months due to the ongoing pandemic and we miss seeing them! To help ring in some holiday cheer, our Director of Therapy Services, Melanie Dominko-Richards, MS, CCC-SLP, HPCS, partnered with Mel the pony to whip up a batch of tasty horse treats on camera for our first installment of "Baking with Mel & Mel!"
The treat recipe (see below) and video were shared with the ADCSC as one of their virtual holiday activities for their members. The Mane Stream herd enjoyed the treats that we made and they can’t wait to receive the ones made by their friends at the ADCSC!
