Humane Education:
We believe that educating youngsters on proper care and respect for all of
God's creatures is the best way to prevent abuse and neglect. To that end,
we offer hands-on humane education programming geared to Middle School
aged students free of charge on a limited basis here at the farm. Please have
your school principal call to arrange a date! School offerings are secular to
comply with State and Federal regulations that limit religious teachings
in
public schools.
Christian-based Summer Camp:
We are praying that we will be able to offer a FREE summer camp to all
children, Christian and non-Christian, in the SAD 22 (Winterport, Hampden,
Newburgh) area, and depending upon demand and funding, may extend
to areas beyond as well! Stay tuned for more information on this as we
develop this opportunity.
Consultation Services:
Pre-Purchase Evaluations:
Often folks eager to purchase a horse may become enamored with it's initial
beauty, grace, or personality. These are important factors, but sometimes a
particular horse may not be the best choice given other factors like training,
age, vices, body type, or other variables that may eventually lead to it being
re-sold. Pre-purchase evaluation can assist a prospective horse buyer by
offering an unbiased opinion of the horse's overall suitability given the buyer's
pre-stated needs. This small investment prior to purchase can save tons of
money and heartache in the future. The consumer does not just get a pass/
fail response but also a thorough report from the evaluator on which to base
the decision on whether to buy or not buy a particular horse. Call for
more information about this professional service.
Equine Transportation:
Equine transportation is available in our 3-horse slant load trailer. We only
offer custom hauling so your horse will never be hauled with other strange
horses. Our trailer is extra-wide and extra-tall with on-board temperature
sensor and video camera to ensure your horse's safety and comfort.
The trailer is disinfected between hauls to minimize exposure.
***Due to unstable gasoline prices, we now ask that you email or call us
with the horse's departure and destination addresses so that we can
give you a quote based on mileage and current gas prices.***
