Autumn's Gate

Autumn's Gate Niagara County’s Family Fun First Farm! Horseback Riding, Summer Camp, Birthdays, and so much more!! WE RIDE FOR FUN! BUT THERE ARE SO MANY BENEFITS!!

Located in the beautiful town of Porter in Niagara county, we are only minutes away from Lewiston and Niagara Falls and 45 minutes from Buffalo and Erie county. Our core values are based on the proliferation of confidence, empowerment, and responsibility. We exist to help people realize these things within themselves, we just happen to ride horses to do it! We believe these attributes play an inte

gral role in how we view ourselves and how we contribute to our community. Both of which are major pillars in our state of mental health and wellness. We believe that people should embrace and enjoy every second of life! MENTAL HEALTH
Besides having fun and being safe, fostering confidence and inspiring a sense of accomplishment is what we're all about! We can talk for hours about how being on the farm and interacting with animals can boost mental health and wellbeing for anyone. GET SOCIAL
We love our barn family! There's something about the barn that brings people together, and Autumn's Gate is no different. Whether sharing an adventure on horseback or mingling with new people at our events, this really is a great place to make new friends and to bond with animals. HEALTH & WELLBEING
Improve your agility, core strength, and balance, all while having fun and being adventurous. If endurance or cardio is your thing, we've got the perfect solution for you. In general, horseback riding is a perfect addition to any health regimen or an added bonus to having fun! ACADEMIC & COGNITIVE
We're not kidding! Studies show that horseback riding can cause a significant impact on cognitive function. Improvements in problem solving, memory and retention is common. We hear from parents often that their children are more motivated and attentive academically. We foster opportunities for people to find their spark. Their spark of adventure, their spark of creativity, or their spark of pride. There is nothing more rewarding than helping our guests discover something new in the world, or something new they’re capable of.

It’s so hard to believe there’s only two days left of summer camp. It’s one of our favorite things to do here on the farm. I had to take a moment to walk around and see what everyone was doing. It’s so amazing to see our campers doing so many different activities at the very same time. Thank you to all our campers and families that shared their summers with us. Be sure to comment your favorite 2025 Camp stories.🤠🤠🤠

The arrival of our new gelding at the farm has generated considerable excitement. In order to choose a name that suits him, we will be spending the next week getting acquainted with his personality. As a friendly reminder, please comply with the quarantine procedures outlined in our earlier posts. We kindly ask that you don’t touch or approach him as he is decompressing and getting acclimated to his new home.🤠

Elowyn has been released from quarantine and is now situated in her new stall in the barn, located at the back near Raya. While we understand that many people are eager to interact with her, provide treats, and offer affection, we kindly request that she be given space for the time being as she acclimates to her new surroundings and learns proper stall etiquette. Thank you for your cooperation during this transition period. 🤠

🚨🐴 Why We Quarantine New Horses at Autumn’s Gate 🐴🚨

At Autumn’s Gate, every horse is family, and just like with people, when a new member joins the herd, we take time to get to know them safely.

📍Quarantine isn’t about isolation, it’s about protection.

All new horses at Autumn’s Gate go through a 2-4 week quarantine period before joining the rest of the herd.

This helps us:

✅ Protect our herd from potential illnesses, parasites, or contagious conditions that may not show symptoms right away.

✅ Observe health and behavior in a quiet, low-stress environment.

✅ Allow the new horse to adjust to our routines, diet, and surroundings gradually.

✅ Build trust with our team before socializing with other horses.

🔍 During quarantine, our team provides extra TLC.
We monitor temperature, appetite, manure, and overall demeanor. It’s also a great time for vet checks, farrier work, and dental care if needed.

🛑 A Quick Note for Visitors:
We kindly ask that all guests and riders:

➡️ Do not approach or pet horses in the quarantine area.

➡️ Avoid touching gates or equipment marked for quarantine use.

➡️ Wash hands or use sanitizer after visiting the barn and before interacting with other animals.

➡️ Talk to a staff member if you’re unsure which horses are in quarantine.

🌿 The safety, health, and happiness of every animal at Autumn’s Gate is our priority, from the friendliest pony to the gentlest giant.

🐎💚 Thanks for trusting us with your favorite horses, and for supporting the care that keeps our herd strong, healthy, and thriving!
