Horsemanship Lessons
Available:-
Eight friendly horses of assorted
colors and breeds offer noses to pet and eagerly take carrots and apples
from outstretched hands. During the two-hour horsemanship experience,
you'll learn grooming basics and help tack up.

We help you mount and fit the saddle
to you before heading to the riding arena where we work on becoming the
horse's leader and communicating when we want stops, starts and turns.
Then we head for the hills, along the ponds and through the woods to see
what kinds of farm animals, birds and wildlife we can find. The
experience ends with removing tack, feeding treats and bathing or
grooming, depending on the weather and the day's schedule. Rides are $50
per person for guests, $55 for non-guests.
Please do not ask to ride if you
weigh over 225 pounds or if you are not physically fit enough to get up
on a horse. Anyone who is fearful may be led on horseback. Riding is
physically strenuous and requires good posture, balance, concentration,
thoughtfulness and the ability to listen.
Even the quietest horses can be
unpredictable. By coming to the farm, you accept responsibility and all
liability for your experience on the ground or riding.

Please arrange riding in advance. You
may bring carrots or apples as treats if you'd like. Overnight boarding is
available
