SCROLL DOWN FOR CURRENT PRICES WHY ARE OUR PRICES LOWER THAN AVERAGE? Our prices are lower in an effort to serve the community. We keep our prices low because of the current economy and due to the fact that we are serving a wide variety of children with issues/problems, medical diagnosis's, and AMA recognized disabilities. Please do not let this scare you off! All of our riders are amazing! Our brightest stars and most talented riders are some of these kids. You would never know that they have some sort of diagnosis or issue, unless they told you. We have at least 3 different programs at the farm, which you can learn more about on this website.
