Picnic with the Ponies: Gateway HorseWorks’ Spring Farm Experience!

Spring is arriving at the farm, and we’re excited to invite our community to Gateway HorseWorks’ first annual spring event — Picnic with the Ponies!

Sunday, April 26th 11:30 AM – 2:30 PM

This special afternoon celebration welcomes friends, families, and neighbors to experience the work happening at Gateway HorseWorks while enjoying a relaxed spring day at the farm.

Throughout the event, guests will have the opportunity to see live demonstrations from our treatment teams showing how Gateway HorseWorks incorporates horses for the mental health treatment of people. These demonstrations will offer a window into our trauma-informed approach and the powerful role horses play in supporting individuals navigating anxiety, depression, PTSD, addiction, grief, and more.

You’ll also get a behind-the-scenes look at life in the barn as our expert barn manager demonstrates how we care for our incredible herd, sharing the daily routines and practices that keep our horses healthy, happy, and ready for their important work.

This is a picnic-style afternoon, so bring your blankets and camping chairs, settle in on the grass, and enjoy the beauty of the farm.

Here’s what you can look forward to:

• Live program demonstrations from Gateway HorseWorks treatment teams
  
• Horse care demonstrations from our barn manager
  
• Lunch included from a local food truck
  
• The Stick Horse Derby — cheer on your favorite competitors in this crowd-favorite race!
  
• Time to relax, explore the farm, and meet our horses

Whether you’re already part of the Gateway HorseWorks community or curious to learn more about what we do, Picnic with the Ponies is a wonderful way to spend a spring afternoon while connecting with our mission and our herd.

We can’t wait to welcome you to the farm.

Mark your calendars — and bring a friend!
