Brook Hill Farm
***Rehabilitation Showcase***
Most of the horses donated to Brook Hill Farm begin their stay in our rehab program. They are evaluated by many professionals including a veterinarian, a chiropractor, an acupuncturist, a massage therapist, and a farrier. The staff and trained volunteers then work together to make a plan for each horse based on their individual needs.
If you are interested in donating a horse to Brook Hill Farm please click here to find information on the donation process. If you are interested in information on the tax donation requirements, click here.Due to the quality of our horses and the fact that we give them away for free (according to the rules set forth by Brook Hill Farm), we have a waiting list for their adoption.
