Facilities

Our farm is located on 60 beautiful acres! 4 "mud lots" open up to the 4 separate, larger pastures. There are also 2 other smaller pasture spaces both with shelters. We mow, and fertilize these fields. Horses are kept off of them 4-5 months in winter/spring. This gives the pastures a good jump start at growing PLUS prevents any of the horses eating the high sugar in the new spring vegetation. Horses who have foundered in the past, are watched, but get along just fine with our slow intro to more mature pasture. It takes us a minimum of 4 weeks to transition the herds from hay/grain, to an almost exclusive pasture diet. They thrive on it and are a joy to see, peacefully grazing. 

All horses have access to heated, automatic waterers. These are cleaned weekly and as often as possible during the winter months. We have “different” smelling well water here, but horses get used to it quite fine. Horses who have never used an automatic waterer quickly learn how to use one, (we make sure of that). We do NOT use, nor allow use of heated buckets in the barn. We simply are not safely wired for it and have taken care of 100’s of animals over 32 years without ANY becoming dehydrated. If you are reading this, wringing your hands in worry…this is probably not the place for you. No offense!

We maintain roughly 1.5 miles of gravel drives, 2 miles of fence, a 100x200 outdoor, 150x60 indoor, 3 barns with concrete aisles, 28 stalls, 50ft round pen, indoor/outdoor wash areas, 4 tack rooms,a bathroom for humans, 6 tromp sheds, 13 mobile, outdoor hay feeders + all the equipment it takes to do so! Whew!

There are 3 separate barns, all with running water, their own tack rooms, (one is heated and has a bathroom with hot/cold water). All of the box stalls are 10x12, (2 of these stalls have removable dividers for foaling), stalls also have windows, aisles are 12 feet wide and concreted. We have many sets of cross ties, and an outdoor wash area with a hitching post. There is a 50 ft solid walled round pen, 60x110 indoor arena, 75x120 outdoor, trails you can ride on, as well as a mowed path around one of our larger pastures.
