Its stated mission is "Teaching Independence in Life through Independence in Riding."
The farm lists therapeutic riding for independent and supported riders, and its Giving Day profile describes weekly lessons in English, Western and jumping. That profile reports 56 riders in adaptive sports and 24 in hippotherapy in 2026, and 23 horses. Riders also compete at horse shows, including EWD events.
