Volunteering in Canada with ponies – requirements & tasks
Our farm is a equine breeding and training facility north of Toronto.
We raise Welsh ponies for riding and driving. We have a riding school and train horses to carriage drive and ride. Our horses compete at many riding competitions and carriage driving competitions.
We compete on Ontario hunter + jumper circuit as well as at breed shows. We generally have 2-4 foals a year. My daughter, Kilby, is 18 years old and attends French immersion school. She enjoys the horses very much and spend much of her time in the barn riding.
Help with daily care of ponies and stable chores. Training young ponies, dressage, jumping and driving of older ponies.
Only females please.

We provide room and full board. You will have a private bedroom in my home with a shared washroom depending on other helpers who are here at the same time.
