Learn about our ranch! 🐴

This is a mounting block! This tool alleviates excess pressure on our equine’s backs during mounting and dismounting. It also allows our instructor to better assist participants in getting on the horse.

All-around, this mounting block is a big blessing to our ranch and our riders' therapy! 💙

As much as we love the rain and how it renews the ground, our ground is pretty soaked right now!

We cannot wait for beautiful sunset rides with our riders again! ☀

Participants and Volunteers; Nature has really blessed us with plenty of rain, and even though we can’t ride at the moment, the farm will dry out by next week and we’ll be back in the saddle!
Meanwhile, here at the RusticM Ranch, we take great pride in caring for all of our equine and Trailer, the farm cat, providing comfortable shelter, quality hay, good water, and plenty of land to exercise.

Good for All Ages 💙🐴

At LEAP, there’s no age limit on confidence, growth, and connection. From our youngest riders to our seniors, therapeutic riding creates opportunities for learning, healing, and joy through the incredible bond between horse and rider.

Every ride builds courage, life skills, and smiles that last long after the lesson ends.

These sweet faces say it all. 😇

LEAP is a light in the lives of many in our community. We provide peace and stability that only time with a horse can truly bring.

We love what we do!! 🐴💙

Over the past several years A-1 Septic Service, owned by Dusty Gibbs, has generously donated and maintained a handicap accessible port-a-potty here on the farm for our program. Give a shout out to this terrific company and let ‘em know you appreciate this service!
