Programs Overview
Misty Meadows Equine Learning Center aspires to be a leading resource in the island community and beyond, that connects individuals of all ages and abilities to horses and the natural environment through unique, innovative and inclusive programming that is affordable for all. We are dedicated to providing programs that stimulate an interest in horses and empower individuals through connection with them, helping students better understand their own emotional and physical needs and how horses can enhance and improve their health and wellness.
Programs are available year-round and open to both youth and adults.

“This has been a wonderful experience for Mia. She started out so afraid and uncomfortable and now she’s a different child. She so looks forward to her Fridays with Susie and Callie. I’m so happy for Mia and so grateful for your program. Susie is an amazing instructor and Callie is so patient and sweet. The three of them have made a perfect match.”
