Fur-real fun, hands-on therapy

Although therapy dogs and goat yogis regularly keep the campus cuddle quota high, the Penn College community was treated recently to a visit by fur friends who reside at Mama T’s Homestead. Sheep, rabbits and ducks were among the stars at the three-hour “Meet ‘n Greet.”

Mama T’s Homestead, a small central Pennsylvania farm that crafts soaps, yarns and other products, offers mobile educational programs and art activities. The rolling “fluff fest” set up shop near the large floral “PCT” outside the Field House, quickly attracting a huddle of hugs.
