We had a blast running our Rookie Riders camp yesterday 🌟 It was a beautiful day for our first camp of the summer ☀️ (Pictured: lesson pony Gus after the 4” of rain we had last week 🙈)

[Zoë MacDougall @pelmacstables]

This beautiful, sunny weather after a snowy, rainy start to spring has our grass growing like crazy! The horses have stepped up to the challenge of getting it mowed back down🐴

Reminder to check your horses for ticks 🪳Especially if they live on grass, or if you’re out hacking!

[Zoë MacDougall @pelmacstables]

We’ll be doing another backpack order this week 🎒 Talk to Zoë if you’d like us to add one for you! Both styles will hold a helmet 🐴
