Meet your Neighbors at Bella Terra Stables

Bella Terra Stables is a nonprofit organization in Murrysville dedicated to strengthening the connection between humans, horses, and the natural environment. Founded in 2020 by Amber Power and Ilse Eisele, the 26-acre farm offers a peaceful, restorative setting just outside Pittsburgh.

Through equine-assisted learning, Bella Terra Stables provides children, families, and groups with transformative, hands-on experiences that foster self-awareness, communication, and emotional growth. Horses serve as powerful partners in these sessions—mirroring human emotions and guiding participants toward insight and healing.

Beyond its human-centered work, Bella Terra Stables also provides purposeful retirement for older or injured horses, giving them renewed purpose as co-facilitators in therapy and learning. The organization’s care extends to the land itself, as it restores and revitalizes the farm’s natural ecosystem to support the harmony of humans, horses, and wildlife.
