Schooling
Come and play at Rainbow Meadow Farm! We specialize in a safe & fun cross country course for the green horse & green rider!! We also have a separate combined driving course for our driving schoolers! We look forward to seeing your smiling faces and beautiful horses!
- So, how does it work: First things first - availablity! Please contact Annie to confirm your date, number of horses and time (AM/PM) that you plan to arrive. The easiest way to reach Annie is via text at (360) 827-3627. Unless there is an event scheduled (calendar), you should be cleared to school!
- When you arrive at the farm: Before you mount your horse, you will need to make your way to the barn with the rainbow on it (Annie's pony barn) to sign a liability release and pay your fee (see below). You may pay with cash, check or Venmo (to @RainbowMeadowFarm), but fees must be paid before you mount.
