For 11 years, Leg Up Farm has provided services for children with special needs in York County. Now is the time to bring Leg Up Farm's expertise to Franklin County. To date, the efforts of Franklin County leaders have resulted in a land donation in Fayetteville as well as funds raised to complete the majority of site work. However, we have a larger fundraising milestone to reach before we are able to start building. You can help bring life-changing pediatric therapy services to Franklin County.
