These volunteers are responsible for the daily care of our equine staff, including feeding, moving horses to and from paddocks and pastures, and "mucking stalls." Morning and evening volunteer hours are available. Horsecare volunteers get the privilege of spending individual time with our very special equine staff!

Mission Statement

Our Vision From the Ground Up Therapeutic Horsemanship, Inc. will offer excellence in Equine-Assisted Activities and Therapies with emphasis on safety, quality and professionalism.
