History & Background:

Help, hope, and healing for at-risk youth and their families in a therapeutic, residential setting located on a 110-acre campus

Windwood Farm Home for Children, Inc. is a private, non-profit long-term residential care program established in 1985 by a local businessman, Joseph L. Tamsberg, Jr. Since he made his initial donation of this property that was previously his family's home, Windwood Farm continues to be utilized as a valued resource in our community. A voluntary Board of Directors, who is representative of the community in which it is located, governs this agency. Mr. Tamsberg continues to assist us in the delivery of our mission: to prevent child abuse and neglect. Through this mission we are building foundations to influence futures.

Since 1985 when the home opened it's doors to six children, Windwood Farm has continued to grow at a steady pace. In 1991 a second home was constructed; the school building followed in 1997. Two more major projects were completed in 2005. A residential home for 10 children that includes our administrative offices now sits on our main campus, and the back 60 acres of our property features an outpost cabin for our Environmental Education Center. During the summer of 2009, a computer lab was opened in our oldest home.

Currently, we are licensed to serve 28 boys between the ages of five through 16.
