St. Zachary's Haven was inspired by our founders' son Ryan. Ryan was a beautiful soul and had a heart of gold. He loved to fish, hunt, camp, and do anything outdoors. He always had a special place in his heart to help those who were vulnerable to the harsh words and actions of others, as he knew what that felt like. Due to his addiction, his life was cut way too short.
In memory of Ryan, St. Zachary's Haven will be a place where residents can deepen their faith and find healing in the peace of nature—a place we believe Ryan would have truly thrived. Through
this healing farm, Ryan’s legacy lives on as a symbol of acceptance, change, and hope.

Transitioning from treatment back into day-to-day life can often prove challenging for those pursuing recovery and a new direction. St. Zachary’s Haven is a certified Level 2 Recovery Home through Ohio Recovery Housing and a sanctuary for renewal and restoration. Situated on a 13-acre farm, we offer housing and compassionate recovery support through community and the healing power of nature for those struggling with addiction. Whether working in the gardens, caring for the animals, or bike riding along the Little Miami Scenic Trail, your time at St. Zachary’s Haven will be a reinvigorating experience.
Connecting with nature can promote emotional healing, reduce stress, and enhance overall well-being. At St. Zachary's Haven, we support our residents' recovery by offering opportunities to engage directly with the earth, finding restoration through the therapeutic act of working with soil and nurturing growth. In addition to gardening, residents may also take part in caring for animals on the farm, building a sense of responsibility, connection, and calm through daily interaction with the
animals they care for.
