This Wednesday officially kicks off our Mustang Mornings at the Farm series! 🐴☀️ This summer, join us on Wednesdays at our farm on the mainland in Grandy. Meet the rescued Banker horses currently in our care on the walking tour, where you can spend time with our staff. We will have two free movie screenings of The Secret of Corolla, a 32-minute documentary on the Bankers, the culture, and lifestyle of the island.

Suggested donation of $10 per vehicle at the gate.

CWHF shirts, hats, and other gifts will be available for purchase. You can also sponsor any horse that you meet at the farm! Digital sponsorship includes a photo, certificate, your chosen horse’s story, as well as video updates on your sponsored horse.
