All of our programs feature hands on activities. We have helped many people get over their fear of horses and large animals with our gentle ponies and safety first educational programs. Experience the fun of horses at our facility today!
Horse Know How Page will be covering many topics about horses and horse care. Currently we are featuring information on shoeing and on horses and water in the winter.
Unlike most equine facilities we specialize in children to age 12. Our programs are more than just a ride, we include education and farm fun in all of our programs.
Our riding program is composed of three components. We do simple pony rides for all children, we do lead line lessons for young children from age three, and we do traditional riding lessons for slightly older children.
Our educational programs include our special preschool program as well as programs for adults and children.
Our family and group programs include pony birthday parties and other special events. We can customize any of our activities for your special group.

Winter Hours 2010
We had such a great November and early December that we forgot how cold winter can be. When we are settled into our new place we will be postiing our new hours.
Help Support the Program Through the Winter Months
You can help support our program in many ways. We have a morning feed program that is both fun and educational for children and adults. The cost is $10 per session with up to 4 people. We do our morning feed every day. This is a great introduction for novices and a quick horse fix for those who no longer own their own horse.
