This right here… is what most people don’t see. A trailer full of hay. Around $600 worth of hay. And the fuel it takes to get it here. It lasts this farm maybe two weeks.

Horse ownership isn’t just lessons and riding time. It’s feed. Hay. Bedding. Labor. Land. Maintenance. Fuel. Vet bills.

And right now, all of it is going up.

We’re in a drought. Which means grass isn’t keeping up. Hay is being fed later in the season than usual. For those who have to ship hay in, fuel costs have also doubled, only adding to the rising costs of this industry.

Hay prices are rising. Delivery costs are rising. Everything it takes to care for these horses is climbing right along with it.

This isn’t a complaint. It’s just the reality of what goes into doing this the right way.

Because cutting corners isn’t an option when you are dealing with living beings.

The horses still get fed. They still get quality care. They still come first. Always.

Next you cut that check for lessons, training, board, and think, "man that's alot of money"... think about this hay. Think about the feed bills when feed is averaging $30 a bag right now. Think about supplements, vet bills, etc. Think about the time it takes to care for those horses daily, and the potential labor costs involved in that. I don't know anyone in this industry who truly charges enough.
