At Forest Gate Farms we strive to provide a natural, peaceful environment for your equine friend. We are a full service boarding and training facility. We turn out seven days a week and clean stalls daily. All horses are fed hay and grain twice a day. Our facility offers large indoor and outdoor arenas, individual and group turn out, round pen, heated and air conditioned viewing room and direct access to trails in the Blackberry Maples Forest Preserve. Forest Gate Farms is owned and operated by Shaun and Emma Florian who have over 50 combined years of equine experience.
Forest Gate Farms also offers lessons to those interested in learning how to ride. We offer lessons to people of all levels of experience, from those who have never been around a horse and want to learn, to those who have experience but want to advance their abilities in both the English and Western disciplines. Forest Gate Farm also has several horses available for shareboard.
Does anyone know the name of a horse riding stable in Elburn I believe that has an all day horse camp (9-4pm) for children on June 22nd? I can't find the original post I saw about this! Thanks!

My daughter (8 years old) would like to have her birthday party at a horse farm with horse/pony rides. Any recommendations of local places?

https://m.facebook.com/ForestGateFarms/ I'm not 100% sure if they do party's or not. But Emma Florian is awesome and can help with any questions.

We offer birthday parties at Forest Gate Farm. Our spots for summer are filling up fast. Our parties include pony ride, crafts and an area for you to set up snacks and/or lunch and watch the horses play
Brand new to St. Charles, was hoping to find a horse stable that allows children (specifically 3,7&8) to visit her and meet a horse/learn about them. Any recommendations for one in the area?

I have a farm in Elburn and could do something for you. We customize meet and greets and lessons to meet your family's needs. We are doing a horse show this weekend that they could even participate in if they wanted. The show is open to anyone of any experience level. I will walk alongside beginners to ensure they are safe and comfortable. https://m.facebook.com/ForestGateFarms/
