☕🌸 Thank You for Blooming & Brewing with Us! 🌸☕

Our hearts are full after such a beautiful morning yesterday at Coffee with Horses: Bloom & Brew!

Thank you to everyone who joined us — your smiles, laughter, and love for our horses made it a truly special day!

A huge shoutout to Valley Community Pantry and Hemet Donuts for providing the delicious donuts that fueled our morning fun. We’re so grateful for the amazing support from our community!

From big horses to little minis (and lots of coffee in between!), we loved spending the morning with you.

We can’t wait to see you at the ranch again soon, and thank you for being part of our growing family! 💚🐴

🐴✨ Fun Fact Friday! ✨🐴
Did you know… miniature horses might be small, but they have BIG personalities and even bigger hearts?

Mini horses were originally bred in Europe in the 1600s and were often kept as pets by royalty! Today, their gentle nature and compact size make them wonderful therapy animals and beloved members of our herd.

Bonus fun fact: Our minis—Austin, Bailey, and Sterling—have already stolen a few hearts around the ranch! Come meet them tomorrow at Coffee with Horses: Bloom & Brew!

🐴✨ Fun Fact Friday! ✨🐴

Yesterday we asked:

How tall does a miniature horse have to be to be considered a true “mini”?
The answer is… C) Under 34 inches tall!

Miniature horses may be small in size, but they’re full of personality and charm. To officially be called a “mini,” they must measure under 34 inches at the withers (that’s the highest part of the back at the base of the neck). Anything taller and they’re just... short horses!

Our minis—Austin, Bailey, and Sterling—may be tiny, but they have BIG hearts and love making new friends.

Did you guess right? Let us know below!

✨ Happy Monday from all of us at T.H.E. Center! ✨

We’re still reeling from all the fun and love at our Egg-Stravaganza this past Saturday!
The support from our community was absolutely egg-ceptional—you showed up, showed out, and reminded us just how special our little ranch family truly is.

Your kindness keeps our mission trotting forward.
Whether you came for the pancakes, the egg hunt, or just to give a horse a carrot—we felt the love!

Now as we gallop into a new week, here’s your Monday reminder:
"You don’t have to do it all today. Just take the next step forward."
Even small steps lead to beautiful journeys.

Wishing you a week full of sunshine, smiles, and maybe a little horse magic too!

🎟️🐰 THANK YOU, RAFFLE DONORS! 🐴💕

A heartfelt thank you to our amazing donors for your generous raffle item contributions for Coffee with Horses: EGG-Stravaganza! Your kindness helped us raise vital funds for our horses’ feed and medical care, all while bringing tons of joy and excitement to so many kiddos. 🐎💊🥕

Your generosity truly makes a difference — and it shows in every smile and happy moment we saw on the ranch yesterday.

One special little girl was especially lucky... she won several raffles! ✨ We think the Easter Bunny sprinkled a little extra magic her way! 🐣💫

Special shout out to our wonderful volunteers, Chauntay Dupree & Miara, for handling the raffle frenzy like such pros! We are so lucky to have you on our team ☺️

Thank you again for supporting our mission and making the day unforgettable!
