Last Saturday we had a very impromptu deck the stalls party. It was a super small group but they got the place looking great! 🎄 Next year I'll try to plan ahead better! 😅

What does it mean to be a responsible, fair, and compassionate equestrian? Here at Hopewood Farm we believe that that very question is the foundation to a lifelong pursuit of equestrian excellence. Our Horses 101 series is a unique camp experience focused on understanding and caring for horses. While we will be spending a lot of time with the horses it is important to note that there will be no riding as part of these camps.

Horses 101: Is for ages 7 & up and helps your child understand what our horses daily needs are and how we can provide them. The basics of health and care, and how to spot potential problems. Learning how horses think and communicate. How to safely handle a horse.

Horses 101 Expanded: Is for current students or Horses 101 participants who are around the age of 10 and up. The subject for this particular Horses 101 Expanded camp will be a little more technical. We will be exploring how a horses body works, specially their muscles and how they move by highlighting different muscle groups! As well as touching a little further on different behavioral signs.

What a fun afternoon with our Ladies' Relaxation in the Barn event! What a great group of ladies too. Not only did they brave the cold and blowing snow but they were eager to really connect with the horses and asked some great questions! All the horses thoroughly enjoyed the extra TLC and of course the cats had to get in on the action.

We are looking to add more events like this and others to our calendar moving forward so make sure you are following our social media pages to stay up to date! Also we would like to know, what types of special events or services would you be interested in?

Ladies, come join us for a relaxing afternoon in the barn! Horses are highly intuitive and have shown they can reduce stress and anxiety as well as lower blood pressure in humans! We will be grooming the horses with our focus on connection and body language feedback. This offers a unique opportunity to operate only in the present moment with constant and direct communication between you and the horse.
💕
This event will be held in the barn which usually stays between 30 and 40° so dress accordingly. We will begin the afternoon with light refreshments while we discuss horse safety.
The event is $20/person (cash, check, or Venmo). Please RSVP by February 15th. You can do so by sending us a message here, call or text, or through email.

Thursday and Friday we had camps with 3 different kids each day! The days were filled with chores, riding, and making horse treats! One group also got the chance to learn to lung a horse and the other group spent time learning horse anatomy. I actually got the bone and muscle charts out for them 😄 which they thought was super cool! I love it when kids get excited about learning! 💕
