We currently house over 40 horses made up of boarders, our own show
horses and several pampered and beloved school horses. All horses in
our care are provided with top quality feed and customized, consistent
care in which we pride ourselves in.
Oak Meadow is currently showing on both the local and national circuits
with great success, and as much as we enjoy the show ring, our love of
horses alone runs much deeper. For the unconditional love they give and
trust they have in us is insurmountable. I'm truly honored to be a part
of the Oak Meadow Family where service, love and loyalty are bound into
one.

Maplewood Warmbloods
Goshen, NY
Submitted by Jen Vanover, Owner
8 horses on SmartPak
Maplewood Warmbloods was a barn that originated in Michigan. My love of
horses started when I was 4 years old. I competed in many disciplines
but had an attraction to the sport of dressage and the handling of
horses in general. I was an automotive engineer while following my dream
with horses. I Incorporated in 2004 and in January 2007 moved the
facility to the current location in NY and found some amazing people to
work with who agree with the ideas and goals.

MWW focuses on the boarding, breeding, and training of the dressage
horse. We believe in a team orientated environment, free of judgement
and prejudice. It is an open training facility (no resident trainer or
trainer owned). We all benefit from this and are in turn able to fully
study the sport. We believe correct dressage is a tool that makes any
horse better.
Maplewood Warmbloods is a 60 acre facility with 50 12x12 stalls.
Currently we care for 28 horses. We have gone to extensive lengths to
provide top quality flat grass-filled paddocks, top feed, top events,
top customizeable/consistent care, as well as the top training
environment. Our dust free environments, meticulous tracking of care,
and constant continuous improvement make us stand out as a facility.
The very low requirement of veteranary visits makes us stand out as a
staff.
SmartPaks are a facet of that meticulous care. Horses are not "cookie
cut". Each horse has what works for them. We understand that very well.
With SmartPaks, we don't have to measure supplement amounts or have
checklists to make sure what needs to be provided is. The customer or
staff can make adjustments as needed. We also love the option to have AM
and PM supplements depending on the needs of the individual horse.
Efficiency is part of what makes us great at what we do.
Consistency...key to success. SmartPaks help make that possible.

Kingsway Farm
Halifax, MA
Submitted by Amy Hern, owner and barn manger
23 horses on SmartPak
Kingsway Farm in Halifax, Massachusetts is a hunter/jumper training
facility dedicated to the happiness, comfort and well being of its
equine athletes. The farm participates in an active show schedule
throughout the East Coast and offers lessons for beginners through
advanced riders. While most of the farm's horses compete as hunters,
jumpers and equitation horses the farm has a dressage trainer and is
home to several dressage horses as well. To build and improve upon their
flatwork, many of our horses (and their riders) "cross-train" which
helps keep our horses happy and fit.

Completely remodeled in 2008, the entire farm layout was designed
keeping in mind the advancements in stable management that demonstrate
the importance of turnout, airflow, lighting and herd dynamics in
today's horse. We also believe that proper nutrition is a critical part
of managing any horse but particularly those who undergo the rigors of
training and showing.
SmartPak is a crucial part of our management program and allows us to
formulate targeted supplement regimens that help keep our horses happy,
healthy and competitive. With our busy show schedule it is so easy to
pack just enough SmartPaks for each horse and when many of our horses
spend time showing on the Florida circuit in the winter; it just takes
one phone call to SmartPak's great customer service to have the horses'
monthly shipments sent directly to the horse show. SmartPak's
Smart-Supplies also make our job of keeping all of the farm's residents
(thirty horses, two Jack Russell Terriers and two very spoiled barn
cats) well taken care of with equine, dog cat, (and people!) products
we all love!

Fairy Tale Farm
Galena, OH
Submitted by Meghan, the owner
10 horses on SmartPak
After many years of riding at high end Hunter barns, I took a huge risk
and opened my own place. I wanted a place where students could learn
safety and horsemanship, where we could help unwanted horses, and where
people could really enjoy their equine friends. Fairy Tale Farm was born
in January of 2009. Since our opening, we have grown a large lesson
program, filled our stalls with boarders, and helped several
slaughter-bound horses become valuable members of equine society. We
also have earned important respect in our local show circuit, been
invited it Breyerfest, and volunteered our time to a humane society case.

While opening a barn of my own was a "fairy tale", learning the day
to day operations were anything but. That's where SmartPak came in!
Although we only house 14 horses, each gets numerous supplements and
without the organization of SmartPak, we would be lost! SmartPak cuts
down on the confusion of feeding time and saves us time as well.
SmartPak made my transition into barn ownership much easier!

Brookfield Farms Equestrian Center
Clarence, NY
15 horses on SmartPak
Brookfield is a brand new facility built in 2007/2008. We specialize in Hunters/Equitation but have recently had quite a few jumpers added to the program! We have many horses and many ponies (can never have enough ponies!). The Barn holds 36 stalls and provides lessons to students ranging from leadline/beginners to "A" rated showing student. We love to host clinics and have had the opportunity to host clinicians such as Kristen Montevecchio-Garbarini, Margart Haveron, Alfonso Salcedo, etc. Out riders love to diversify their skills and it is common to see a hunter student apply level 1 dressage movements to their daily hacking routine! Learning and taking advantage of every riding opportunity is our goal.

We currently have a
rider/boarder in the USHJA Emerging Athletes Program and have 2
riders/boarders who ride for the University at Buffalo ISHA team. At the
end of the day we could never function without SmartPak! Almost every
horse at our barn has a SmartPak Regime and our employees love the fact
that they can rely on the promptness and accuracy of the SmartPak
Program. Thanks SmartPak for continuing to give us the confidence to
improve our companions' performance with your perfect SmartPak Program!

Barn Owners: Cindy and Jay Teich
13 horses on SmartPak
At Orchard Hill Equestrian Center, we are all about horses and of course, ponies! As lifelong horse lovers, we decided to purchase our own farm and found Orchard Hill Equestrian Center. We cater to a variety of levels, disciplines and ages. Students in our lesson program begin by learning the pleasure of horse care and riding in a safe environment. They progress to learn the beauty and precision of dressage, the endurance and bravery of cross-country, and the skill of stadium jumping.

"With over 40 horses to keep track of, SmartPaks help us stay organized. Boarders are VIP’s at Orchard Hill and peace of mind is important to them (and us)! With SmartPaks we are able to ensure their horses are getting the proper supplements and dose. Another benefit of the SmartPaks is the time my Barn Manager, Hueler, saves during feeding time.
