GSF believes in educational opportunity.

There are options for those who want to receive Horsemanship Education or to participate in our Equine Companion Program but cannot afford it at this time.

All options below begin by contacting Valdasue – let’s work something out.

  • Volunteer to Ride: this option is for people 12 years of age and older. There are always chores/projects that need to be done.  Two hours of volunteer time = one lesson/companion session. 
  • Barter to Ride: GSF will consider trades for lessons (ex: firewood, hay, produce, etc.)
