Founders

Maya and Doug Larson

My name is Maya, and together with my husband Doug, we created Faith and Love Farm as a place where people can slow down, reconnect, and feel surrounded by peace, love, and nature. What began as a dream to continue the legacy of love already rooted in this property has become a sanctuary for animals, healing, creativity, and meaningful connection.

As an art teacher for over 12 years, I’ve always loved creating spaces where people feel safe, inspired, and truly seen. At the farm, my heart is to offer guests an experience that feels grounding, welcoming, and restorative — whether they come for a retreat, a wedding, a workshop, or simply to breathe and rest.

Faith and Love Farm is more than a venue to us. It’s a place where love gathers.

Spiritual & Heart-Centered

I believe healing happens when people feel connected — to nature, to themselves, and to one another. Faith and Love Farm was created as a peaceful sanctuary where people can rest, reflect, celebrate, and reconnect with what matters most.

Surrounded by animals, gardens, open skies, and the quiet beauty of the land, my hope is that every guest leaves feeling lighter, inspired, and deeply cared for. Whether hosting a retreat, special event, or overnight stay, I want people to experience the warmth, authenticity, and love that this farm was built upon.

 

Lester Hurst

Lester, a divinely designed being with a life passion to live a full free and awesome life. His passon developed by living and working with individuals who had endured significant traumas, and joining their quest for transformational answers, and the many times the answers were very feeble instead of powerfully transformative. That search lead him to a powerful way to holisticly clear emotional and physical baggage, showing how the physical body can release its cellular memory to guide us towards manifesting health physically and emotionally.

What is The Art of Intuitive Body Unwinding?

• Hands-on supportive movement guided by the receiver's body's specific strain patterns
• Accessing connective tissue strain patterns and supporting their release through the body’s natural mechanisms.
• From small cranial tensions to full-body movement, experience a unique approach to physical and emotional healing.
• "The body keeps the score" providing an opportunity for stored emotions and traumas to be processed and release at a much deeper level
• I listen with my hands and heart, allowing your body to intuitively guide its own release.
