Educational Offerings

Classroom Education & 4-H

Classroom and Home-Schooled children are welcome! We have programs specifically designed to suit their needs. We also have in place Girl Scout, Cub Scout and Boy Scout programs to help with earning their badges. Tara Farm is also home to the Heels Down 4-H Club. The mission of the club is to assist youth in acquiring knowledge, developing life and horsemanship skills, and forming attitudes which will enable them to become self-directing, productive and contributing members of society.

They also may not think about how long a horse can live, or what they’ll do if they have to move. Read more here: Before You Adopt.
