Wow! Where did the summer go??

Since this is the last week of summer break, I will be CLOSED Saturday September 5th and Monday September 7th.

I will also send a message to my Monday and Saturday lessons :)

I hope everyone has had a great summer break and soaks in as much summer this last week/ weekend!!

I also want to address the case of Equine EVH at the Sussex fair, if you have been around horses prior to coming to me for a lesson. Please make sure you wash your hands and change clothes. We want to keep all our animals safe 😊

Thank you!!

This might be the last one this year! Hoping to host one more but October can be a bit unpredictable

🐴 Saddle up and Learn! 🐴
Looking for a fun and hands-on activity for your child?
Join us for a special horse experience where children will:
✨ Learn about horses and how to safely interact with them
🧹 Help with real barn chores and discover what it takes to care for horses
🐎 Learn how to ride! Hop on for a ride around the arena, no worries if your child is to nervous we can spend that time brushing
🐴 Meet and spend time with our friendly horses
🎨 Finish the day by painting a horse with washable, horse-safe paint for a colorful and memorable experience!

This is perfect for young animal lovers who want to learn, explore, and have fun in a safe and welcoming environment. Build confidence and learn something new

No horse experience is necessary—just wear clothes (boots or sneakers are welcome ) you don't mind getting a little messy and come ready for a great time at the barn! 🐴

This is a very limited program with only one event running per month.

This is a 2 hour session, minimum 13 kids maximum 16, open for kids aged 6-13 (with exceptions)

Please pm for pricing 🐴🐎

Date to be determined for September! But it will be towards the end

Horse riding isn't just about riding horses, its about how we care for them as well. Saddle up and Learn teaches kids what it takes to care for these animals 💕
From how to ride to how to muck out a stall (we use golf balls) we go through the whole barn experience.

After learning ofcourse we have to end the day turning the horses into beautiful artwork ✨️
