25th of October we’re hoping to run a Halloween trail here at THF
We will set some obstacles in the outdoor arena (like a little trec course) and then have a little trail set up around the farm again - and a pumpkin to take home 🎃 carve it and the winner will get a prize 🏆
The price will be £10 per rider (£4 for any accompanying children wanting a pumpkin who are on foot) parents I will have the pumpkin patch a little closer this year lol 😂 so no having to carry them back!

If you can’t make the 25th but want a go I’m sure I can keep some things up…

£10 includes both the obstacles (spend as long as u want) in the outdoor and a walk round the trail.

A little update from Thornton House Farm 💚

As everyone knows, costs have gone up across the board recently — but we’ve decided to keep our arena hire and competition fees exactly the same until at least January 2026.

We’re really proud to be part of such a great community, and after chatting with a good friend this week, we’ve decided we’d like to do something to give back. So… we’re setting up a food bank collection here at the farm.

Instead of increasing prices, we’d love it if, whenever you use the arena, you could bring along a small item of food or a toiletry — things like a tin of baked beans, pasta, cereal, or soap/shampoo/deodrant/nappies. They already have a great connection with Always who are providing sanitary products, but any other toiletries or food items would be hugely appreciated.

Let’s try and make a difference — there are far too many children and families struggling right now, and together we can help make things a little easier 💛

Thank you for your support,
The Thornton House Farm Team
