Public Rides
Finally Farm Paints is offering the opportunity for you to come and ride or groundwork your horse at our amazing facility! We are open for winter 2025 for horses that are vaccinated against flu and rhino; contact us for details. We have a 120 by 60 arena with nice, soft footing. There is plenty of room for trailer turnaround and parking, and ties in the arena to tie and tack up. Please sign paperwork before unloading your horse - if no one is here when you arrive, the packets of paperwork are in a plastic file holder by the office door, along with a cashbox. Read each page and sign where indicated. Everyone will need to sign a new set of paperwork in 2026.
​
Cost is $5 per horse/rider pair. Please put your payment in the blue cash box by the office door. There is no time limit on your work. Normally, we are open daily, from 10AM to 9PM. (Please contact us or take a look at our Facebook page for any team practice or weather related closures). We are open to horses who have had their flu/rhino vaccine within the last 12 months. You must provide us with documentation of vaccinations prior to coming here. If you wish to ride here, but your horse is not up-to-date on its vaccines, please contact your veterinarian.

We have a120 by 60 arena, lots of trailer parking, easy trailer turn-around, a viewing deck with chairs, a restroom, and room for snacks and beverages.

Examples of past clinics include: Horsemanship 101. This is a great clinic if you have a new horse, want your youngster to gain experience, or if you and your horse need a tune-up and refresher. This is on the ground for part of the day, and for the rest of the day, you can get in the saddle if you wish. Focus will be on communication, gaining your horse's respect, and working together to form a partnership. Trailing Through Summer. This will be a more in-depth focus on working with trail obstacles and on teaching your horse to face potentially frightening objects with confidence. For those of you who were on our trail course last year, we have added new and more challenging obstacles. Advanced Horsemanship – Perfect Your Skills. For those who have completed Horsemanship 101, or for intermediate riders, this clinic will focus on fine-tuning communication with your horse under saddle, precise and independent body movement, and adding speed to your movements. This clinic will help you to build on your partnership and teach you skills that will take you to the next level. The popular Fundamentals of Ranch Riding. This clinic will be mostly under saddle, and will focus on the skills needed to enter a ranch riding competition, which continue to grow in popularity. Even if you have no plans to show, this clinic will teach you fun new skills while you improve your riding. You will have the opportunity to be videoed and enter a virtual show for an extra fee! Introduction to the Cutting Flag. In this clinic the flag will be used as a tool for horses and riders to gain confidence and body control in a fun and safe environment. If you ever want to play with cattle with your horse, this is an essential first step, with low pressure. Flag speed will be set to your comfort level. If there is enough interest, we may add an Advanced Cutting Flag Clinic, for those who are ready for more speed and precision, and to prepare for correctly working a cow.
