there are a few openings for
both pasture and stall board!

Please contact us for
current availability and
possible openings.

Q: Is deworming included
in the board?

Yes and no. All new horses are
dewormed upon arrival and on
an 8-week rotational schedule
thereafter. This service is
free, but boarder pays for
actual cost of product.

Q: Do you offer lessons
and training?

Yes! We are now offering
limited slots for on-site and
off-site lesson and training in English, Hunter Jumper,
and Western disciplines
to both adults and children.
A few lesson horses
are also available.
Lease options may also arise.

Q: What is "Stable-lyx?"

Stable-lyx is a molasses-
based "lick" that ensures
the proper intake of
essential minerals and
vitamins for both maintenance
and performance horses.
This product is fortified
up to five times as
much as any grain offered
on the market. It gives horses
a consistent supply of
nutrients, reduces grain
intake, promotes slick,
healthy coats and hoof growth,
and improves overall condition.

Pasture Board
Ten acres of three-board fenced pastures are available for a total of 8 pasture boarded horses. Each five-acre pasture is designated for mares or geldings, with up to 4 horses in each pasture. This allows each horse plenty of space and year-round grazing on both summer and cool season grasses. Horses have access to clean water, grass and/or hay, salt blocks, and Stable-lyx on a free-choice 24/7 basis. Shelter and shade is also accessible. All horses are fed once to twice daily, as needed to maintain optimal body condition, in 8'x10' outdoor stalls with feeders for both grain and hay. No fighting for food ensures that each horse receives his or her nutritional requirements.
