Kimberly Farms
Horsemanship Camps
Send your child to savor summer in Vermont at our friendly, individualized horsemanship camp. We emphasize not just riding, but building a relationship with each horse. Our camps also encourage personal growth for each camper. Learning new skills and connecting with people and animals builds self esteem, and many of our students find horsemanship becomes a driving interest for many years. We limit the number of campers to preserve this individualized approach.
Each week is packed with fun activities both on and off the horses. At Kimberly Farms, campers ride every day, and take off-site field trips to interesting places. Riding lessons, horse care, nature walks, flashlight tag, and a late-night cookout all add to the fun, but the best part of the experience is sharing laughs and making lifelong friends. We offer both day and overnight horsemanship camp to kids of all ages and every level of riding ability, including the first-time beginner.
