Boarding

FairHaven Farm offers full board only, at a cost of $400 per month.

The 8-horse barn at FairHaven Farm was built in 2001, and is owned and managed by Abby Meyer.  The stalls are 12’x12’, with matted floors and rolling doors.  The amenities include a heated lounge, storage area, and bathroom for the boarders.  The outdoor ring has excellent footing and exceptional drainage.  Boarders are welcome to bring in their own instructors.  Abby is happy to provide support and encouragement for the less experienced riders, and is often available to accompany the boarders on trail rides.

The barn routine includes 2 feedings of grain per day and five feedings of hay.  The first feeding is at 6:30 a.m. and the last is around 9:30 p.m., when water buckets are refilled and the stalls are picked up.  FairHaven Farm provides Blue Seal feeds and high-quality local hay.  Boarders provide any supplements that they wish their horses to receive.

The horses are turned out every day unless the weather is unusually severe.  Boarders provide their own insulated turnout blankets, rainsheets, flymasks, and flyspray, which are used as needed. 

Boarders are required to keep their horses up to date on shots, worming, hoof care, and dental care.  They may engage their own veterinarian and farrier, or use the professionals who regularly come to the barn.  An excellent equine dentist comes to the barn twice a year to check the horses’ teeth and float them as needed.

FairHaven Farm is open 365 days per year, and boarders are always welcome to spend time with their horses.
