Liberty Farm

Liberty Farm is dedicated to fostering the special bond between people and horses in a fun and safe manner. Horse welfare is our primary concern which is reflected in all levels of our teaching. Liberty Farm offers very diverse opportunities to riders of all ages with goals ranging from weekly pleasure rides to national competitions. Liberty does not offer trail rides.

Liberty Farm offers a variety of services for your convenience:
- Public Lessons: Liberty Farm provides the horse and all of its equipment and teaches students how to correctly prepare to ride. We have a variety of school horses for riders of all ability levels
- Boarding: Students who want to become serious competitors or to become more consistent riders need to own or lease a horse. Liberty Farm offers many leasing and half-leasing opportunities as stepping stones toward ownership.
- Summer Camp: No matter which session campers attend, our highly qualified staff will teach age and experience appropriate lessons on safe handling, care of horses and equipment, group riding lessons, games on horseback, anatomy of a horse, arts and crafts, & more in a fun and interactive manner.

- Birthday Parties: Offers an hour-long informal riding lesson with a focus on fun and games! Taught by our qualified staff, children will enjoy learning something about horses as well as celebrating their birthday. We also have a party room available for rental to complete your celebration.
- Competition Opportunities: Our students are very successful and place high in year-end awards on state and zone levels. Above all we want our students to be happy with themselves and their performance. Liberty Farm hosts an Interscholastic Equestrian Association (IEA) team for middle school and high school students. Throughout the year the farm organizes 6-8 shows, where students can ride their own mount or lease a school horse for the day. Outside competitors are also welcome, contact the farm for more information!
- After-School Programs: Liberty farm works with schools, park departments, and scout troops to offer after-school programs designed to give children a taste of what horsemanship is about.
