Whether you are a novice and want to learn about horses from the ground up, or an experienced horse person that wants to share your time and expertise, we can always use your help! You will learn firsthand about the feeding and handling of draft horses, some with very special needs.
Volunteering for a horse rescue is something that comes from the heart. As you work with these wonderful animals, you will be surprised by how much you learn about yourself. Being around horses is the best therapy in the world!
We can use your strengths in every area, from building fences to hauling hay bales. Yes, some of the chores are not so glamorous, but it all needs to be done. Keeping our horses in a safe and sound environment takes a lot of hard work. Young adults, retired folks, veterans… we welcome all and will spend time with you to show you the ropes. Here are a few of our daily chores:
Feeding and filling hay bags
Bringing the horses in/out of the paddocks for feed and care
Mucking paddocks, cleaning and filling water buckets in each paddock
Sweeping and general clean-up
A signed volunteer release form is required. You must be at least 15 years of age to volunteer with us. No volunteers under the age of 18 can be at the farm without an adult family member.
