Board Rates:
To give you the most
value and ultimate flexibiilty in your horse's care, your board cost is
itemized into two separate charges, one fixed cost for facilities and
services, and a separate cost for feed.
We work with our
clients to determine the optimum amount of hay and grain each horse
needs to maintain condition, and then charge the actual cost per pound
for feed. We buy top quality Eastern WA hay in semi loads, so are able
to get excellent prices and pass the savings on to you!
Because you are only paying for
what your horse consumes, smaller horses and 'easy keepers' don't get
stuck subsidizing the needs of bigger horses. Additionally, horses are
never limited to 'X flakes per day' as they are at many barns. We want
each horse to be in top condition, and want our clients to feel
comfortable asking for the exact amount of feed they'd like their horse
to get. We feel this is the best way to achieve those goals.

Hay is fed exclusively using
Slow Grazer Slow Hay Feeders. Slow feeders
encourage horses to consume their feed in small amounts over a long period of
time, as nature intended. As a result, stable vices are eliminated, horses are
happier and healthier overall. Read more about slow feeding here:

PLEASE NOTE: For
the safely and well being of our herd, we DO NOT accept horses with
behavior problems such as aggressiveness towards other horses, or vices
such as cribbing. We also do not accept stallions or foals at this time,
as our horses get group turnout.
