Our kids ages 4-8 had a blast at Mountain Brook Farm today! From brushing and riding one of the horses to getting to hold and touch the other animals. The staff were fun and friendly and there is lots to do-highly reccomend!

This is a wonderful event to experience! We took the 2 hour ride with Quinn who is very experienced, and had a great time. Obviously you get to ride the horses as they walk, but you also will get to trot and best of all canter with them! If you like horses, and riding, I recommend you add this to your bucket list.
