Garden of Eaton Farms is a family owned and operated horse farm in Eaton, IN.
We offer year round lessons, summer camps for kids, trail rides, and educational services. If you or someone you know would like to learn about horses and riding then this is the place.
Operating as usual

Good news, summer riding lessons will be starting soon! I will be completely done with classes and finals for the semester on April 29 and will be starting lessons the following week, May 5-9. For anyone who wants to take lessons the times available are listed below. I will be taking weekly and bi-monthly students. Please email or text (765-716-1094) which day and time you prefer. Remember, this is on a first come, first serve basis so the sooner you let me know your time the better chance you have of getting it.

We are so sad that camp is all over! Luckily we will still be having riding lessons which will start September 2. Lessons will be on a first come first serve basis as Kelly will only have so many available spots since she has a heavy work load. We will be sending out an email to our mailing list with the spots available the last week in August and we will post the same schedule here at the same time. If you did not come to camp, or you haven't emailed me in the last year you are most likely not on the list. To put your name on the mailing list email me at [email protected] with the message "put me on the riding list" and I will add your email!
Know someone who love horses and being outside? Then refer them to our camp! https://docs.google.com/a/fortheland.org/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dFBqMVEzTDNxTDUwVTJjYlpsOEUwUkE6MQ#gid=0
We still have 7 spots left for the July 22-26 camp. Please let friends and anyone who might be interested know about camp!
Now that June camp is over we are working towards getting ready for July! Lessons resume this week so if you want to make a time please contact Kelly.
Today I came into the barn and found that the arena had flooded and that it was still raining so we were having a hard time figuring out how we would ride. Luckily the kids were great and patient and we all got to ride today once we figured it all out. Life is much simpler when you have great kids and great horses.
Getting ready for day 2! today the kids get assigned horse for the week and we start working on building up our horse skills.
First day of camp was a total success! We couldn't ask for a better group of kids, they are just all so wonderful! I just know this week is going to go by so fast!
Only 2 days left until the start of camp! We are so excited to see everyone!
We are happy to announce that we will have camp t-shirts for sale this year! Shirts can be bought in Lime Shock or Tropic Blue and will feature the camp logo on the front and the saying "Keep Calm and Canter On" on the back with a running horse. We just submitted an order so we will have some sizes and colors available but we will also have an order form available at the end of camp show. Shirts should be priced between $15-$20, but we will know more when we get the shipment in!
We are all full for June! With just 11 days to go until camp we at the farm are working to pull everything together, but we cannot wait to see everyone at 9am on June 10!
We still have one spot left for the June camp and 11 for the July Camp. Sign up ASAP because we are going to start advertising around Muncie within a week.
Leaving for the airport in 7 hours! For those of you who would like to know where I am and what I will be doing each day you can check out my blog at kellyswildlife.blogspot.com where I have scheduled posts to pop up everyday that explain where I am and what I am doing.
Ok so turns out we had a back out so we still have an open June spot first to sign up gets it.
June camp is all full! July is still wide open but I know lots of people who wanted to sign up for camp and are just waiting so go ahead and sign up or you may miss out.
Only one spot left for the June camp but July is still open. Congrats to Gabriella and Maya Thomas! Also congrats to our new camp counselors Erin Walker, Kaylee Seals, and Haleigh Clements!
Anyone who signs up (or refers someone to sign up and is mentioned as such) for the July 22-26 camp from 4/25 -5/5 will get $5 off of a camp t-shirt. T's will have our logo on the front and the saying "Keep Calm and Canter On" on the back. They will be available in all sizes.
Ok, so due to some conflicts we will be moving our July camp to the last full week in July. That's the 21-26 for counselors and the 22-26 for campers. Sorry to change to dates but this was the only way.
We only have 4 spots left for the June 10-14 camp! If you were planning on signing up and have not done so then now is the time. Visit http://gardenofeatonfarms.businesscatalyst.com/horse-camp-2013.html to register before its too late.

Ok, well this was a learning experience but the new website is officially launched at the usual domain gardenofeatonfarms.com! there are some hiccups such as broken links but those will hopefully be fixed this weekend. At that point the camp sign up will be open to the general public so make sure to sign up early if you haven't already using this link: https://docs.google.com/a/fortheland.org/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dFBqMVEzTDNxTDUwVTJjYlpsOEUwUkE6MQ#gid=0

Garden of Eaton Farms is a family owned and run farm where we pride ourselves on being welcoming and personable. We have 76 acres of pure old Indiana farmland and woods as well as a large swimming and fishing pond. With the help of our horses we offer horseback riding lessons as well as several ho...
Some big changes going on here the next couple of months! First off we are redesigning the website and adding some cool new features such as "educational" pages and more info about us and what we do. We are also currently designing a new logo for the farm, which will look really cool. Possible other fun items to follow, but what I really wanted to get out there is our new Counselor Program. We have decided that we would like to open up the opportunity for teens to come learn how to be great counselors at the farm. Camp Counselors need to be 16+ but Junior Counselors can start at age 12! We are putting the final touches on the program but if you know of anyone who would want to apply let us know!
The dates for two of our camps have arrived! We will be having camp June 10-14 and July 8-12. Sign-ups are not up yet as we do a revamp of the web system but be thinking of which camps you might want to have your kids attend. Rates, number of available spots, and the sign-up form to follow soon!
We are all full for January-April riding lessons. If you are already a client and have been waiting to contact us about lesson times please contact Kelly. Summer lessons start in May will be coordinated through Maddie while Kelly is in Africa May 7-23. We are finalizing camp dates and those of you on facebook will have the special limited time offer of signing up before the registration goes public.Thanks to everyone who supports us!
OK so for those of you wanting to know when Kelly will be offering lessons this spring the tentative times are Monday @ 6:30, none on Tuesday, Wednesday @ 4:30-, Thursday 4:30-, and Friday 4:30-. Will also offer some weekend lessons but Kelly can't promise anything on those since she might be working part time this semester as well as taking 15 credit hours and working at the barn.

Dates for this upcoming summers Horse Camp are up! We are hoping for a great turnout again this year. If you know any friends who are interested, please spread the word and give them my contact information. Thanks everyone for your continued support
Had a great time with all the girls that came out for Thanksgiving Horse Camp. Luckily, the weather was perfect and we all even got to go on our very own trail ride. I was thankful this year for each and every girl that has been involved. You girls are so wonderful and never fail to make me smile. I am not the best techy person, but I am going to try and upload all the pictures we took. So look for them soon!
I can't thank everyone enough again for all the constant support.
P.S. I plan on continuing private lessons, but they are now on a day-to-day basis depending on the weather.
Happy Holidays!
Maddie Borgmann
