RHF Virtual 5k

About Riding High Farm:

Riding High Farm incorporated as Handicapped High Riders Club, Inc., is a 10.5 acre farm, indoor riding facility and stable. This facility was organized in 1979 as a not-for-profit 501c(3) corporation, dedicated to providing special needs riders with recreational and therapeutic instruction.  Riding High Farm cooperates and maintains accreditation with PATH, International and strives to maintain the highest standards of care, safety and instructional benefits for special needs riding. RHF makes every effort to acquire our equine staff from rescues, and most of our horses have found themselves homeless in the past and in need of a second chance. Our horses come from second and third careers such as law enforcement, racing, show careers, and even the rodeo. RHF uses these horses to help promote mental wellness and emotional growth, along with physically strengthening the rider, in what is known as Equine-Assisted Activities and Therapies.

Our goal:

To raise funds to go towards the care of our horse herd and small animal village. Funds from this event will also go towards any additional expenses we've incurred due to COVID-19 (i.e. additional cleaning supplies, PPE, etc.) and other program-related expenses. Our horses cost us approximately $100,000 in annual costs and RHF receives no federal or state funding. Fundraisers and amazing donors like YOU make it possible for us to continue doing the work we do!
