Would you like to help with lessons, walk trails, do barn chores, or organize special events, all the while making friends with humans and horses? High Horses is looking for volunteers of all ages and levels of experience. We offer general orientation, along with enrichment workshops and one-to-one mentoring, so that all of us can learn and grow together.
