Hi folks, originally we started a gofundme to buy hay equipment to share amongst 3 farms. However, we've changed the focus of our fundraiser to be to raise enough money to hire a grant researcher and writer to help us find and apply for grants to make our equipment purchase happen.

Our neighboring farms provide a stunning viewscape which we believe enhance the overall beauty of Pleasant Valley!

We thank you for any support you can provide.

Please share! This is for neighboring farms to be able to buy hay equipment and share the equipment to become more economically viable farms:

It was a beautiful day for a hunter pace!
Thank you to the 87 teams who came out to enjoy the 2025 Locust Hill Fall Hunter Pace on this thankfully beautiful day. We ended up backed up at the starting area due in part, to some teams arriving late and 10 teams arriving before their scheduled times, but our start timers reported everyone was gracious and patient.
We want to send special thanks to all our volunteers without whom we could not have this pace. Big thanks also to the Pleasant Valley Fire Department for standing by during our event. We had a fallen rider near the finish, and they were right there to care for her. They also attended to another fallen rider. We are so grateful to have them there for our big event.
We also want to thank Rhinebeck Equine for sponsoring a new jump this year! It was featured as one of the photo jumps.
Thanks also to Stone Hill Designs for sponsoring prizes for our first, second and third place winners.
First Place team will receive beautiful, embroidered saddle pads.
Second place team will receive etched insulated water bottles.
Third place team will receive etched insulated coffee mugs.
The 2025 Hudson Valley Pace Series standings will be updated within a day or two. We had so many happy riders collect their Qualifier Mementos and Grand Slam awards. Thanks to Horse Power for sponsoring these prizes. And thanks again to Rhinebeck Equine for sponsoring the pace series’ winners awards.
