Earn Your Badge with Us!

Availability: By appointment only - for groups of up to 24 scouts
Duration: Roughly 2 hours

As a Program Partner with the Girl Scouts of Eastern Massachusetts, we have developed a horsemanship program tailored for Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, and other groups eager to explore the world of horsemanship or earn a badge.

In this 2-hour long program, participants will learn about horses and their care in general and about safe practices for working around horses. Each participant will have a hands on opportunity to groom a horse or pony, try their hand at some farm chores and have a pony ride, weather permitting.

Each participant must have the following:

• Signed Liability Waiver (sent when the program is booked online)

• $30 per participant

• Participants should come dressed with appropriate footwear for a farm. Closed toe shoes are a must (boots with a heel are preferred). No sandals or flip flops are allowed for safety reasons. Long pants and layers should be worn for comfort. 

• The farm provides helmets

In the event of inclement weather, the participants will have a chance for a horsemanship lesson, but may not have the opportunity to ride, as we do not have an indoor arena. The riding instructor will decide if riding is an option based on weather and footing conditions in the outdoor arena. If riding is a critical component of the badge, we can schedule a rain date in advance upon request.
