Morning Star Farm Riding Academy & Therapeutic Riding Center

I am currently the Advanced/Intermediate Instructor and what an incredible farm! Not only does everyone enjoy even riding by looking at the riders and horses, but the excitement builds the moment you turn in the farm. I have ridden numerous horses in my life and these horses and ponies are by far my favorite! You are in for a real treat when you lesson and/or board here! Our show season started off with a bang this year and we hope you will join in on the fun we have!! more

I have known Judy and Shelly for the past 9 years and trust them with my daughters safety. My oldest daughter is now working on the farm which is giving her great learning opportunities. My youngest daughter is enjoying every second of being there and learning something new every time she rides. Horses usually make me very nervous. Judy and Shelly have calmed my nerves and it has been a pleasure to watch my children learn how to handle, love and be safe around horses. Morning star farm will always have a special place in our hearts. We are looking forward to many more happy years at the farm. more

my family was referred to morning star farm by a family friend over three years ago when we moved from a large city to this tiny little hamlet. since then, both my daughter and son have learned to love and respect all the beautiful animals they have met at the farm. while the horsemanship and private lessons have taught my children to be exceptional riders, the instructors have taught them to be confident and strong. the assertiveness, gentleness and kindness they have learned has helped them excel as riders as well as young individuals. as a parent, i couldn't ask for more. i couldn't be happier!!!!! more

I started bringing my daughter to morning star farms back in June 2011. My daughter was 3 yrs old and wanted to ride a horse. Based on a reccomendation from a friend we tried out the farm. From that first day we were treated like family. Everyone was helpful, positive and loving. Shelly, our instructor went out of her way for my daughter. Later I realized that she does this for everyone. She loves what she does and she really loves working with the younger kids. My daughter has found a real love in riding and this has been such a great experience for all of us. My younger daughter cannot wait to start riding and I admit that now I want to start riding come the spring. It will be such a great family activity and I can thank everyone from morning star farms for making it happen. more

Judy has been in horses most of her life. First Arabs, now children's programs. All the horses are healthy and happy and the facility is very nice. Good place to be if you have kids. more

I am the Beginner Riding Instructor at Morning Star Farm. The kids and people are wonderful here and there is nothing more satisfying than seeing a child riding a horse with a smile on his/her face. We are blessed with beautiful horses and ponies and a program any child would love. As we always say its ""An experience your child will remember for a life time."" Proud to be a part of Morning Star Farm. more
