Horse Fun! Classes
Do you have a horse-crazy kid?
Our Horse Fun! classes give children a hands-on introduction to the wonderful world of horses.
​
Each two-part session invites kids to meet our friendly horses — a palomino, a paint, and a chestnut — while learning how to safely care for and connect with them.
Children explore horse colors and markings, practice grooming, help with simple barn chores, and even try a mini trail challenge designed just for young learners.
​
These classes are full of movement, imagination, and real farm experiences that build confidence and curiosity around animals.
​
-
Ages 4–7: Little Horse Helpers — beginner-friendly, gentle introductions to horse care and fun farm activities
-
Ages 7–11 and 11–15: Intermediate and teen classes add topics like nutrition, first aid, and riding disciplines
-
Family Horse Day: A special one-day event where the whole family can meet, groom, and learn together (with a picnic or campfire finale!)

Horseback Riding Lessons
Lessons are still on hold but watch for updates.
Hannah has 16+ years experience teaching horseback riding. She specializes in beginners and those who need to build confidence. Western, English, or ground work lessons are available.
"Hannah has been training my daughter for a couple years now. We have a 7 yr old quarter horse and she shows western pleasure. Hannah has been very accommodating regarding lesson days and times. My daughter tends to be somewhat nervous with her horse as this is fairly new to us. Hannah is excellent with kids and more than patient. We are extremely happy with the lessons and will continue with her as our trainer!" - Heather M.
"My daughter, Christen, has been taking horseback lessons from Hannah for over a year. Christen had taken lessons elsewhere for about 4 years. She has progressed more in the year than she had for all of the other years. Hannah is knowledgeable and very kind and supportive. She approaches things so positively. My daughter can get frustrated at times when she struggles with something. Hannah’s positive nature keeps Christen encouraged and engaged. I would highly recommend Hannah as an instructor." - Elise F.
