After School Horse Riding Lessons at Goodenough Farms in Fillmore/Moorpark

Free Horseback Riding Lessons Taught After School at Goodenough Farms in Fillmore and Moorpark

Kids Ride 3-5 PM, Carpools Pick Up from School, Parents Pick Up at Barns

“That two or three hour window after school when kids are often at home and unsupervised is a dangerous time. We give kids, especially girls who love horses, an opportunity to come out and ride a few times a week, get some exercise and enjoy this beautiful area,” says Lisa Hall, a trainer who works with Goodenough Farms, adding, “and we even help them with their homework after they ride while they wait for their parents or the carpool to pick them up.”
