Lottie Hearn rode Porte O Call (Owned by Francine Hammen) to win the children’s equitation medal at Tryon! They came back and were champion in their division after 2 days of showing against a field of great competition! This horse and young rider are really starting to make a presence! Hillmar Farm is so proud!

Congratulations to McKittrick Mackey at Tryon!
Kit stepped up to the 3ft children’s hunter! She also did the $5,000 USHJA DERBY! This is quite an amazing achievement considering the horse she was riding is not an amateur ride! I couldn’t be more proud of her ability to focus and her maturity! This kid is only 14 years old and I’m asking her to do more than she’s ever been asked! Hillmar’s Allegiant (Ernie) absolutely loves her and it shows in the trust that he has put into her! She has helped me get him back into the 3 ft hunters which has not been easy BUT she has done everything I’ve asked her to do and we are seeing results! This is going to be one amazing JR rider come next year! She is one to keep your eye on! ♥️ thank you Margaux Nodvin for allowing Kit to use our main boy and trusting him on the road with me! Your generosity speaks volumes.

The story of Hillmar Farm

Hillmar Farm (formerly Hunter Hill Farm) was purchased back in 2004 by mother/daughter team Sondra and Margaux Nodvin. Extensive renovations and additions to the farm were undertaken immediately to the 85 acre facility. These renovations included replacing all of the exterior of the main barn and storage building, removing the rotting wood and replacing it with Hardiplank. Some of the other renovations we did included adding 6 stalls to the main barn, building a shavings storage shed, installing infrared heaters in the newly renovated indoor wash racks, installing fire alarms in the barns, painting all buildings, building two outdoor wash racks, and adding back doors to the interior row of stalls for safety and convenience. At the time of purchase, there were no arenas at the farm; therefore, we had two arenas expertly installed. One arena is our 150’ x 300’ all-weather footing outdoor arena (which has been completely renovated again at the time of this writing). The other arena began as a covered 100’ x 200’ ft arena. Later renovations included completely enclosing the covered arena for the comfort of our horses and clients during the cold, windy, rainy months. Both arenas were equipped with sprinkler systems, lights, a P.A. system, and viewing areas. Over the years, Hillmar Farm has seen the addition of a 7-stall lesson horse barn, installation of an automatic fly-system, installation of security cameras, creation of additional paddocks, creation of a mini cross-country course, and much, much more.

Officially opening for business in Spring 2005 as a top-notch Hunter/Jumper facility, the Nodvins have spared no effort or expense in offering the best Hunter/Jumper training available, the best updated amenities for horses and clients in North Georgia, as well as ensuring 24/7 care for the horses by knowledgeable, on-site staff. For more than 13 years now, we at Hillmar Farm have continued to strive to provide the best in professional training for boarders, lesson program clients, and IEA/IHSA team members. Most importantly, we have continued to offer the best personalized care for our equine companions. At Hillmar Farm, our motto has always been “the horses come first”. This is why you can find so many happy, healthy horses residing at Hillmar! Happy clients and happy horses are abundant at Hillmar, and we take great pride in this fact. Hillmar Farm is, quite simply, a fantastic place for horses and for riders!
