Brook Hill Farm
Volunteer Opportunities

Volunteers are the lifeblood of our organization. The volunteer process begins with a volunteer orientation offered the first Sunday of every month at 2:00 pm, followed by a Volunteer training held the third Sunday of every month at 2:00 pm.

Volunteers are screened and assigned specific days to come and volunteer. Our volunteers do not ride, but aid the farm with basic horse care, farm maintenance, office work, among other things. All volunteers are offered equine education in keeping with our mission.

Our volunteers are all ages, and have various levels of experience. Many volunteers have never been near a horse! They learn basic horse skills and horse knowledge while aiding the farm with its rehabilitation mission. Others help with farm maintenance, office work, photography, etc. Bring your talents and we will put them to use!

 

 

These volunteers are washing and medicating Piper’s leg that was diagnosed with scratches.  The volunteer on the left has since taken this horse home to be her very own!

Still other volunteers help by leading a horse up to the barn to be worked with by the rehabilitation team!

 

 

 

 

 

We depend on our volunteers to help us with fundraising events.  We thank Bank of the James and Johnson’s Orchard for sponsoring us at the Horse and Hound Wine Festival. 

 

We thank each and every volunteer for helping us – we could not help as many horses without you!
