Luxus pasture management and grounds maintenance programs are second to none! Working in conjunction with USF’s Ag Dept, regular soil testing is performed to maintain the best forage for our equine family which includes the necessary fertilization and w**d and ant treatments, along with proper pasture resting periods. Trees are checked and trimmed regularly, fences/gates are checked daily, and cleaning protocols are meticulous. To insure our investment in these pastures, we will board no more than a total of 13 horses on this property, so remaining availability is limited. If you’d like more information, we welcome your inquiries and are excited to share what makes Luxus, German for “luxury”, like no other!
