Hidden Farm, located in Apalachin, NY, close to town and Route 17 but up high on a hill, close to Heaven, where you will feel like you are deep in the countryside! Students enjoy small classes on gentle horses. Our horses are all allowed to preserve their own special personalities which make for a variety of educational experiences for the learning student. We teach with a "Centered Riding" approach, based on Dressage, which concentrates on the proper centered and balanced form for the rider. Everything a rider does or is instructed to do is for a specific purpose and everything counts. We encourage our students to love and respect the horses for whom they are.
Don't just be a passenger....
Learn to really ride!
Our boarder horses are treated with the respect, admiration and love that we give our own. Our full board facility is affordable and friendly and totally "all about your horse"! Farrier service available on site.

Roping Clinic
We had a wonderful time with my good friends, Kevin And Dee Rung and the Tioga County Ranch Rider 4H Club! Both Kevin and Dee are expert ropers and they taught us all the ins and outs of the use of a lariat!

We use and endorse Dr. Cook's Bitless Bridles!
Our horses love their Dr. Cook's Bitless Bridles. They are free from mouth pain (which results in fear), they listen more attentively, breathe more freely, and move more gracefully. With a calm, less spooky horse, communication is enhanced, trust established, performance improved, and harmony achieved. Riding becomes simpler, safer and more satisfying. Both the rider and the horse can relax and enjoy themselves.
Check out the videos on their website....you'll find Hidden Farm students in lesson scenes!
