Fall Children's Programs at Our Farm Equine Rescue

Get your horse on without getting on a horse! We are offering after school Kid's Club, Young Leaders, and Adult Horsemanship (non-riding).

Summer's winding down and the kids are heading back to school. Now is the perfect time to spend with our rescues, while learning to handle & care for them and all horses. We offer both after school, evening and weekend classes.

TLC Handler Program (ages 8-13)

Our Kid's Club turns every child into an Our Farm TLC Handler! They will learn teamwork and make new friends while learning about the basic care of horses, including horsemanship, grooming, handling, feeding and equipment. Each class will include supervised interaction with one of our rescues, educational demonstrations plus fun crafts!
