More about our Pastures
We have eight pastures ranging in size from .5 acre to 11 acres.
In each pasture, the ground is level, stones have been removed, there is no debris, and plenty of shade is available. Shade for a horse
minimizes its exposure to mosquitoes, horse flies, and other flying insects. Each pasture has natural forage consisting of grasses and
legumes.
We regularly inspect the pastures to make sure that they are free from harmful weeds. Access to all pastures is through the home
corral, which is 400 ft. long by 75 ft. wide (.7 acre). Gates in the home corral control access to all pastures. Alleyways connect the home
corral with our more distant pastures.
We routinely harrow the pastures to prevent manure build-up, to break up manure and expose parasitic eggs to sunlight, to minimize
the formation of mud, and to increase the texture of the ground.
