Looking for a unique way to spend the day? Grab a partner - bestie, sibling, child, or parent and head to the farm for a Pony Experience!

Are you a parent, grandparent, or loved one of a horseback rider?  Want to feel more confident around horses and better support your rider.

Are you an adult who wants to learn about and work with horses but not sure you want to ride horses? Or are you unable to ride but love horses?

Do you and your family member or friend want to spend time with horses and ponies but don’t want to commit to a lesson program?

HoofBeats! The perfect introduction to horses and ponies!

  • Spend 1 hour with a horse or pony

  • Discover the bond that forms when you work with horses at eye level.  

  • Reduce stress, build confidence, and learn the subtle art of equine body language - no riding experience required.

  • Learn basic horse safety and handling so you can feel comfortable around them

  • Groom the horse or pony.   … and if you want you can even learn to braid their mane, decorate with ribbons, bows. 

  • Take as many pictures as you would like.  

Fee: $20 per person       

All ages are welcome to attend. This program is designed for older children & adults. We have a Pony Partners class that is designed for younger children (a Mommy & Me style class).
