Sponsor a Child

One child can attend an entire 10 week series of Spring vaulting lessons for a total of $300. Half of that, $150, will carry him or her through 5 weeks of lessons, and a mere $30 will put that child on a horse, a profound experience that may stay with him or her forever.

For an entire session of classic hippotherapy, supervised by a licensed Physical, Occupational or Speech Therapist, a handicapped child can experience 10 weeks of treatment for $450. A single session for $45 will allow the therapist to evaluate his or her case and determine how the movement of the horse can best benefit specific points of weakness or damage.

Meet Stella!



Stella continues to be the firm equine foundation of the farm. Twice a week she goes out with the vaulting club and trudges around in bitter cold conditions so that the kids can keep in shape for the coming season. Sometimes when Kim calls to tell kids that their lessons are cancelled due to cold, Stella says - no! -and the kids say - no! - and lessons go on. WE ARE TOUGH!
