Our Forever Home

THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO HELPED US OBTAIN OUR FOREVER HOME !

Gentle Hill Farm, 1238 North Road, Tully, NY, is the new home of From the Ground Up. It is less than 20 minutes from downtown Syracuse (Lafayette exit off Rt. 81, 1.6 miles south on Rt. 11, bear left onto North Road, 2.7 miles to the farm). We are busy settling in, running programs, and developing new collaborations! On behalf of our Board of Directors, staff, horses, and especially our participants, From the Ground Up thanks you all for your support.
