The Way of the Horse RSS
This is a working farm where kids ages 10–15 become stewards—not just students. They feed rescue horses, build duck ponds, make jam, run the farm stand, and learn what it means to care deeply—for animals, the land, and themselves.
For the ones who are curious, capable, and a little wild.
We see you. And we’ve built this for you
How Long Does It Take to Become a Horseperson? A Lifelong Journey of Learning, Patience, and Purpose
Discover the fading legacy of barn daughters—young girls who found purpose, friendship, and resilience through horses, chores, and long days at the barn. A tribute to a generation raised by hay, heart, and horsehair.
Many people come to horses hoping for healing, imagining the horse will somehow take away their pain. But what they often discover is a mirror—a nonverbal, visceral reflection of their inner world. In this blog, Cat explores the deep discomfort many humans feel when confronted with a horse’s raw emotions—and how that discomfort is often rooted in our own unprocessed fear. With empathy, humor, and lived experience, she invites readers to stop trying to "fix" the horse and instead develop the tools to support them—by first learning to understand themselves. This is a call to courage, not control. A path to connection, not performance. And an invitation to begin your journey—not into horsemanship, but into wholeness.
