It’s cold and snowy but there’s always a whole bunch of ponies and horses having way too much fun out there.
❄️
Kinda makes you wonder if on some level they’re laughing at us as we shuffle around in full winter gear trying to stay warm.
☃️
Before anyone asks they ABSOLUTELY have their choice among a number of cozy shelters….and while we wonder if they need blankets…THIS is what they choose. 😂

Winter trails are running and you’re not going to want to miss it!
❄️
If you’re looking for a way to soak up some sunshine in this winter weather, then a trail ride is a perfect way to get it. Be sure to bundle up, but maybe bring those sunglasses too because that snow really does reflect some light into your life.
☃️
Our one hour trail offers a taste of some pretty incredible scenery, while still being a short enough time frame to avoid frozen toes. The weekends are calling and our horses are ready and waiting to get moving.

It’s that time of year! 🎄
Time for thinking of gift giving, sharing, making memories and togetherness….and if you want to cover all those bases in one quick swoop, you’ll be hard pressed to find a better solution than picking up one of our gift cards!
🎅🏻
Available in any denomination, our gift cards are able to be used for any of our activities here at the farm. Apply them towards anything from trails and pony rides, to sleigh rides with the family, or even a camp experience in the spring or summer.
🎁
Giving the gift of an experience, means giving a gift that will last a lifetime. Make some memories this year and give the gift of an adventure they can hold onto forever.

The snow has arrived all at once! And it’s back to the season of every photo looking like our horses just dropped a new album cover.
🎤🐴
It’s certainly not a bad thing when your coworkers are this aesthetic.
💅🤷‍♀️
Get ready for the incoming uploads of everybody looking fuzzy and pretty. Nothing beats having any mud and p**p frozen under the snow so everything looks super glam! 🙌🤣

Horses are for everyone! That’s why they come in so many different shapes and sizes…just like us!
🥰
We’ve got lots of different horses and ponies, that all have their own personalities. It means that no matter who might stop by the farm, there’s experiences to be had for all ages and abilities.
From some snuggles and nose squishes, to hitting the trails, and everything in between, it’s worth the visit!

VOLUME UP to check out those jingle bells and the amazing clip clop of those hooves!
🎄
We’re back again for the St.Jacobs Sparkles event this weekend and will have our wagons running Friday, Saturday and Sunday so you can kick off that Holiday spirit and check out the shops.
🎅🏻🤶
For more details and a schedule of events head to OR stjacobsvillage.com.
🐴
This time of year sure does get busy, so if you can’t make it out this weekend, have no fear, you can book a private wagon ride for your family and friends anytime.
If you’re down for real adventure and are happy to brave the cold, we’ve got sleigh rides up and running once the snow is good and deep, and the ground is frozen underneath.

Well hello there and a Happy Wednesday!
Just here to spread some joy with some close ups of our super serious and not at all playful ponies.
😂
As you can see they’re quite posh and always so stoic. Ready for an artist to come along and use as a model at any moment to produce a masterpiece for the ages.
Nothing but elegance and grace in all our albums after a day at the farm with these beauties. 😍🥰😂
Hope the rest of the week moves super fast for everyone!

The annual ✨St.Jacobs Sparkles ✨ Christmas event is such a picture perfect tradition, you just don’t want to miss it.
🎄
Check out those picture perfect bums as we travelled through town, and be sure to meet us out there again next weekend to capture some snaps of your own!

If you thought it was just about the horses, or staying active, or getting outside, you’d only be partially right…
🍂
It’s definitely about those things for sure, but one of the biggest and most important pieces of what gets people really attached to the barn, is the connections.
🐴
It’s easier for some of us to connect with animals, especially right from the start. That connection to the animals inevitably does lead to an increased connection with the people that surround those animals as well.
🐴
The world has gone digital, and with an increase in virtual connectivity, we have seen an increase in the number of people struggling to create and maintain real world connections.
🥰
We are social creatures, much like horses. Physical interaction and the ability to share a smile and laugh are important. As much as being able to share hugs when you need them and quiet moments. It’s HARD to make friends for a lot of people, and being in an environment where we learn together, gain confidence, and grow….this is where friendships bloom with horses and people alike.
👩🏽‍🤝‍👩🏾👫👨🏾‍🤝‍👨🏻
Check out any of our riding clubs for adults or children. We have new dates TBA soon and it definitely is a great chance to make some new friends, especially getting into those winter months!

Now, more than ever, these moments of remembrance consist of a deafening silence.
•
While the tensions of new, and increasingly volatile government and economic issues tighten their grip worldwide, we take a moment to remember the lives lost, and sacrifices made, so many years ago.
•
May the lessons learned then, be something all our leaders find a way to recall, during these times of increasing turmoil.

Winter coats are coming in and itty bitty Wee-Biscuit is getting super fuzzy!
☺️
Watching all our horses and ponies move from the itchy burr covered season of the fall, into the fluffy teddy bear season of winter, is one of the cutest transformations!

If you haven’t been out for a visit be sure to stop in and check out the floof!

Sometimes our customers really do get some amazing pics to take home and remember the day.
It’s a good thing too, because the scenery changes super quickly and those changes can be pretty dramatic!
🐴
These were taken mid October by and we’ve already seen the changes of fall take hold on the trails.
🍂
One of the nice things about working outdoors is that it skips past the monotony of fixed indoor environments which can feel almost sterile.
🍁
We’re social creatures that are meant to live within, and adapt to those seasonal changes. If you want to get a real feel for for what we’re meaning, join one of our weekly programs or come out for a trail ride a few months apart. It’s shocking if you’ve been living within the city vs a place where nothing interferes with your view of the skyline.
Being immersed in nature is definitely a missing piece of joy for so many people these days.

Have you ever met a Haflinger??
If not, nows your chance! These guys often seem to have the personality of overgrown puppies with their curiosity, and their desire to be involved with whatever visitors might be up to.
🥰
Their capacity for mischief is pretty high up there though, and they seem to gain all sorts of joy from “helping” with any trail riding or hiking.
🐴
They’re definitely pretty prompt in offering their services as guides along the Health Valley Trail. As you can see, the helpfulness is questionable but the cuteness definitely isn’t!

Making friends with horses is pretty easy…especially after you find one with a squishy nose!
🐴
It might sound funny, but one of our requirements for new horses on the farm is that they have to pass the squishy nose test. If they like kisses then they get bonus marks!
☺️
Definitely make sure you stop for a little squish when you come by for a visit. It’s one of the greatest highlights of being around horses in the first place!

Happy Halloween!🎃
👻
Hope everyone has an amazing night however you participate. Our horses didn’t get dressed up this year so an improvised reindeer costume it is!
🍂
Stay safe if you’re out walking and drive carefully if you’re driving.

Learning your way around a horse can be a lot like developing the ability to navigate life. In the end both require a bit of trial and error, some potential bruises, and the determination to keep trying and working past the challenges. The key is to keep your focus on the outcome. That’s the real reward.🥇Theres something about the process of building a relationship with horses, that really allows you to gain a whole new perspective while building the skills you’ll really need to get where you want to go. What better way, than by developing strength, focus, and communication skills in a totally new way?🐎 If you’re looking for something new to change things up, make meaningful new friends and connections, and open up a whole new world of strengths and skills you may have never even considered, we’d love to welcome you at the farm!👩‍🌾We offer opportunities for individuals to come out and really connect with nature through our trail rides, but we also offer private and group lessons for those looking for a comprehensive deep dive into getting to know horses, and the joy of sharing the fun with others. 🏇🏻We welcome all ages, skill levels, and abilities. No special equipment or knowledge is required, and you’re in safe hands with our experienced team of staff and horses.🐴Check out our website to find out more about all we have to offer, or give us a call and have a chat if you’re not sure where to start. We can’t wait to have you out! ☺️HORSEBACKADVENTURES.CA519 888 6503•••••••#canadiantrailriders #waterlooontario #kitchenerwaterloo #regionofwaterloo #explorewr #exploreontario #ontario_adventures #ontariocanada #ontariotravel #discoverontario #ontariotourism #tourismontario #southernontario #thegreattrail #stjacobs #explorecanada #ontarioequestrian #crhba #trailridingadventures #learntoride #horsebackridinglessons #woolwich
