💛 The adventure continues! ❤️ We are so excited to welcome 4 more groups to the property for weekly visits. 💜 Meadowview Elementary kicked off our 8 week spring ranch learning program for third-fifth graders! They had the honor of being the very first elementary school session on property. 💚 These students will enjoy horse grooming and leading, wagon rides, greenhouse planting, crafts, leatherwork and so much more! 🧡 Our motto of “Encourage, Empower, Engage” is spreading far and wide in the Eau Claire Community School District. 💙 Enjoy this short clip of Jeff Jackson welcoming students and teaching about property safety and expectations.
Stay tuned… we will soon be announcing an opportunity for the public to come enjoy the ranch! But for now… enjoy Copper pulling students on the sled! He sure does love his job 🥰
Here’s something to make you smile on this cold day! Here is Maggie the Clydesdale enjoying the snow this morning. -2 didn’t stop her from having fun ❤️
Some inspiration from Jeff Jackson! We welcomed a new group to the ranch this past week (this makes 11 weekly school groups!) Here is their intro to the wood shop.
The quality of this relationship between Jellybean and Dante beats the quality of the videos, hands down!❤️ As most of us may think the weather is dreary, Jellybean and Dante are making the most of it! 🥳💜 There is another video in the comments to show more of their silly and amazing friendship.
Happy Tuesday ❤️🙂 isn’t she just a goofball 🤓 we sure do love our Miss Maggie 😇
