  Retirement Boarding... the natural way.

A Dream Retirement Getaway!

Whether you have a trusty trail horse, a hunter/jumper, or a thoroughbred racehorse who is ready for retirement, 7 Springs Farm can be your horse's dream retirement getaway!  Our retirees enjoy their days out in lush pastures with their buddies, and your horse can have a comfy 12'x10' stall for nights with plenty of shavings.  That way we can give every horse lots of love & attention!

Each of our seven turnout pastures are between 10 and 100 acres on our 320 acre farm.  They each have a pond with a natural spring and/or automatic waterers.  There are mineral blocks in every turnout, and our rich pasture has excellent grass forage year round.  We bail our own quality organic hay that is an orchard grass/clover mix.  We are glad to feed extra supplements if you supply them.

Our location is ideal for the retired horse because the Ozarks have milder winters and cooler summers than the rest of the midwest.  Here at 7 Springs Farm, your horse can be a horse again!

 





Retirement Ranch with Grazing Pastures

All of our boarding packages allow your horse to be out on high quality grass pasture for 12 - 24 hours a day. Depending on which package below you choose for your horse, you can customize his or her schedule.
Pasture Retirement Board

$200 / month
Turnout in a grass pasture with friends
Hay when needed
Weekly Grooming
Quarterly Worming
Trimming every 8 weeks
Monthly Baths in the warm months

Please note that it takes a special horse to be able to live out in the pasture full time. It may be quite difficult for your horse to adapt, especially if they have always been stalled. This is why we offer two "stall boarding" packages that also allow your horse maximum time out on pasture.

Premium Retirement Board

$250 / month
12+ Hours on Pasture
Daily Turnout in a grass pasture with friends
Personal Stall
Hay & Grain
Weekly Grooming

With this premium retirement package, we bring the horses in at night and let them out to pasture in the morning. We get to check them over, monitor their hay and water consumption, and feed any supplements you provide. This is ideal for any horse that needs closer attention or daily treatment such as leg wrapping, etc.

This is our most customizable package, and also gives us the most amount of time to spend with your horse...so they will get lots of extra love and attention! You can choose to give your horse as much or as little pasture time as you want. They can come in for nights, or come in for a couple hours during the heat of the day, or just during inclimate weather.

With this deluxe retirement package, we include HorseFlax with your horse's daily feed. HorseFlax is a specially cold-milled flax supplement that improves your horse's joints, mobility, hooves, and coat. Click here to visit the HorseFlax website for more information.

Veterinary Care

Negative coggins and immunizations are required yearly. We will add your horse's spring shots to your invoice for that month. Also, please note that if your horse requires shoes or special farrier work, that will be added to your invoice as well. We take care of regular trims. If your horse needs any special care we will be glad to work with you. Our two veterinarians are on call 24 hours a day. All veterinary costs will be billed to the owner.
