We are a true working farm; therefore, we ask you to please contact us for scheduling or more information about horse training, horsemanship workshops, farm visits, or events.

Horsemanship

Dallas Todd Slusher has been training both horses and riders for over twenty years using natural horsemanship techniques. Our farm offers individual horsemanship training and group workshops as well as colt-starting and horse training.

Todd offers both one-on-one training as well as group events from beginning riders to advanced horsemanship clinics.

  • Gain a better understanding of horses and horsemanship skills
  • Effective communication and better understanding of how horses think
  • Better control and respect
  • Master groundwork and develop greater confidence
  • Learn round-pen training skills

 

Farm Visits

Farm visits are a new development at our farm. We can tailor your visit to focus on horses, farm operations, a combination of both, and time to unwind and explore our farm on your own.

  • Heritage breed chickens & turkeys
  • Transitional organic practices
  • Heirloom fruits, vegetables, & flowers

The Wicked Chicken Workshop

Jessica did not start out to become a wood craftsman but as Todd and Jessica worked to restore the once abandoned Three Hill Farm to its past rustic glory, she became a proficient woodworker. Due to the time constraints of farm operations, the workshop is only open from November through February.

  • Wooden barn quilts
  • Early-American furniture
  • Custom furniture & Signs
  • Rustic restorations

If you are interested in learning more about heirloom crops and heritage breeds, or in commissioning a piece, a restoration project, or learning more about our farm operations, please contact us.
