Requirements to volunteer

◯BEWARE! We have geese! It takes time for them to adjust but they will eventually recognize you and leave you alone. If you’re scared of geese this is not a good place to volunteer and we cannot lock them up all day. Animals always come first and we deeply appreciate your understanding and the effort to accept them.

◯We have a dress code. You are asked to dress properly to protect yourself from any accidents such as getting bitten, stepped on or simply shoved by the rescues. Yoga pants, shorts, sandals, revealing clothing are not acceptable. Please consider working boots, cargo pants, jeans and t-shirts for your safety and for the comfort of others.

**Main tasks are mucking stalls, organizing the surrounding and cleaning. Grooming and training the horses depend on your experience and is not promised. We also require every volunteer to be friendly to our visitors and lesson students, which are mainly children.

Please understand most of our residents are rescues and need more patience and care than usual horse ranches. Some are not broken, some are scared of people and some bite because they have been mistreated.
