Rosie & Roxy are both born and raised on the farm.  These horses are great to learn on until your riders finds their own heart horses. Trigger has been a great addition to our lesson program for riders ready to kick it up a gear!

Cleaning tack, stalls and the barn are essential parts of horsemanship. 

Elsie has been riding at Hilltop Farms (formerly Nord Farms) since she was young enough to sit solo.  She participated in 4-H, High School Rodeo, FFA and has continued to nourish her horse education.  She was a NHSRA finals competitor 3 times and has a special love for the sport cutting.  Elsie has been giving lessons for 8+ years and has worked with children and adults of all ages.
