What to expect
Begin this experience knowing that your feet will be firmly planted on the ground, and prepare to open your heart, and get acquainted with a herd of horses, as well as a side of yourself that you might not have seen in a while – or ever before.
Join your host, Jennifer Garland and your horse guides for an unforgettable half-day outdoors. This experience gives participants exclusive access to the farm in a small group setting – just you and your family, friends, or colleagues will be the only guests during your experience. Consider this your perfect opportunity to explore the deep agricultural roots of Peterborough & the Kawarthas at this scenic century farm with pasture fields, hedgerows, woodland walks, historic buildings, a stone labyrinth and the tranquil sights and sounds of nature.
Find your path as you work alongside the herd with simple activities like grooming and walking, while exploring ways to become the best version of yourself in your personal, family and professional life.
“Exactly the ‘connection’ we need to feel these days. This is real, applicable to daily life and lived happiness and well-being. You don’t realize how deeply you need this reality check.”
