We are super excited to be hosting a worship night here at the farm! Y’all come out and join us in worship. We’ve got a great lineup of songs. Adults and kids who want to worship can join us in the barn, and those who get bored can go play in the playhouse while we continue to worship. We encourage everyone to bring a snack to share, and feel free to bring some chairs. If you have a song request, please let us know ahead of time so we can have the music printed out and chord tabs as well. We will have power for electric amps if anyone needs them.

SOLD!!! Yall don’t want to miss out on this sexy stunning gelding! Tigo is a 12yo PasoFino gelding around 14.2-3hh. He’s got a smooth gait, he’s got heart, and he’s ready to roll! His ground manners are awesome, he loads, he stands for a bath, he stands to be groomed and tacked, he stands to be mounted/dismounted, he stands for the farrier. He also dearly loves a good roll in the mud (who wouldn’t, right? 🤣). We recommend an intermediate rider because he has get up and go, but an advanced beginner could probably handle him as well. He is up to date on vaccines, on coggins, currently barefoot, a super easy keeper, and is ready for his new owner. We have more pictures and videos which are available upon request. You don’t was to miss out on owning this flashy gelding! $2500 or best reasonable offer.

SOLD!!! Tigo’s month of training is about to finish up, and he is absolutely ready to go hit the trails (or show ring!) with a new owner. He has good ground manners, he stands to be tacked up, stands for mounting/dismounting. He’s got s***k but isn’t crazy, and he enjoys his work. We do recommend an intermediate rider because he has get up and go. His gait is super smooth and you could ride it for days! He’s shorter (under 15hh), but very stout snd could carry just about anybody with ease. Tigo is a one-of-a-kind, you’ll be sure to turn heads no matter where you go with him. Asking $2500 OBRO. He sells with a first right of refusal and no auction contract.

Our Story

TCF&ER was started by accident in 2011 when Kris and James agreed to take a friend’s horse and find it a good home. Not long after, word spread that they would take equines and find them suitable partners. Since then the rescue sees an average of 50 equines per year. Some of them come in such rough shape that they don’t make it. Some of them don’t stay long before finding the right home. Some stay years before finding the right home. Some come abused, some neglected, but all of them require love, attention, and training. Both Kris and James strive to achieve reasonable goals for each horse that comes here through firm but gentle discipline and love. Equines here flourish and bloom in the peaceful, encouraging atmosphere. Horses that are able are used in the lesson program, often finding homes with the students that ride them.
