This episode is brought to you by Lucas Equine Equipment

This episode was going to be about hoses, but so much has happened in the last three weeks, Helena thought it would be more fun to share her experiences and epiphanies as a temporary client on training board at Unexpected Farm. Plus, we get our geek on with Marc Hollahan from Tangent Materials as he explains just how Tangent Fencing is made, and why it’s a great choice for horse properties large and small. Listen in!

Innovation in the horse industry is always an exciting thing!

Today’s episode includes a conversation with the founders of Strider, a new, digital platform that allows riders to enter events online, and makes simple work out of organizing these events for barn owners and managers. How about that? Saving time, energy, and money… now that’s what I call, INNOVATIVE. Listen in!

EP 53: Takeaways from a Bernie Traurig Clinic

November 23, 2020December 2, 2020

The Stall and Stable Pro Clinic series was created to bring high caliber horse professionals to the tiniest state in the nation – Rhode Island. Nestled in between 2 powerhouse cities – Boston and New York, the horse-friendly Ocean State has many resident equestrians, but limited opportunities for upper level clinicians. Rhode Island competes with our big brother and sister cities in many areas, so creating a boutique-style experience for the riders in our state is an important goal for the Stall and Stable team. And, as we schedule, attend, and analyze these clinics, we’re in a good position to share our experiences (and some tips for hosting clinics) with you, our listeners.

We were pleased to welcome the legendary USET competitor and coach, Bernie Traurig to the farmcoast last weekend. Offered in partnership with Seapowet Stables in Tiverton, Rhode Island, a small group of riders and auditors got the chance to experience top-level instruction that was surprisingly simple. Listen in!

EP 52: A Happy Barn Starts with Good Leadership

November 12, 2020June 13, 2022

When you walk into a barn, can you sense the overall energy of the place? Are the horses happy? Is the barn clean and tidy. How are you greeted by the staff? All of these details are driven by one thing… the barn manager. Good energy in a barn starts with good leadership and works its way down to the tiniest of elements – and creatures.

My guest today is Chelsea Canedy of Canedy Horsemanship & Performance in Wales, Maine. Chelsea’s story will, in some ways, sound familiar to many of you, but what changed her trajectory as a horse professional and barn owner, is intriguing. In commercial boarding barns, keeping a diverse group of horses and riders happy can be challenging, but happiness starts within. Listen in!
