Our Approach
At Black Tomahawk Farm, the focus is simple: steady care, calm routines, and horses that are comfortable in their day-to-day lives. We are not a lesson barn, training facility, or high-traffic operation. What we offer is consistency and a quieter environment where horses can settle in and stay settled.
​
Owners are always welcome to come out, spend time with their horses, and enjoy easy, low-key riding. Our focus is on quiet flat work and connection, not jumping or speed events, so the farm stays calm and consistent for everyone.
​
We live onsite and are present every day. Horses are checked daily, routines are kept consistent, and changes in behavior or health are noticed quickly. Care is hands-on and attentive, without trying to manage a large or rotating program. The property is naturally peaceful, with open pasture, mature shade trees, secure fencing, and both stall and run-in options.
​
We offer full-board stall and pasture (run-in) boarding, with the same level of care regardless of how a horse is housed. Black Tomahawk Farm tends to be a good fit for owners who want a place where their horse can relax, receive consistent care, and not be part of a busy schedule.
​
We value straightforward communication, clear expectations, and doing right by the horses in our care. Our commitment is to provide a calm, comfortable environment where horses can thrive and owners can feel confident their horses are well cared for. We keep things simple, consistent, and focused on what matters most: the horses.
Our Story
Black Tomahawk Farm is the result of a long-held dream finally coming to life. After years of talking about it, this chapter allowed us to bring that idea home and build something thoughtful on our own land.
​
Our decision to offer boarding grew out of the care and responsibility we learned through our personal horse experiences, along with a desire to create a small operation shaped by intention rather than scale.
​
With our kids now grown and away at college, we’re able to focus our time and energy on building a place that reflects our values: patience, consistency, and genuine respect for horses. Black Tomahawk Farm is a reflection of that approach: simple, deliberate, and always centered on doing right by the horses in our care.
