Please park in designated areas and be sure to sign our guest book before you leave. We are eligible for grants based on the volume and demographic variety of folks who come to visit us.

This is currently the ONLY program we offer that is open to the general public without an appointment.

100% of proceeds from this program goes to covering costs for routine horse care (grain, hay, vet, farrier, grooming supplies, barge, etc).
