Stone Acres Therapeutic Riding at Newberry Farm L.L.C. is an equine-assisted services program based in Columbia, Connecticut. Operating from Newberry Farm on Chowanec Road, the program offers horse-based activities intended to support physical, psychological, cognitive, and emotional growth through structured equine interaction.
Its services appear to go beyond therapeutic riding alone and include hippotherapy, equine-facilitated learning, equine-facilitated psychotherapy, groundwork, grooming and tacking, recreational riding, camps, vocational training, mobile community programs, and veteran-focused programming.
