The BEST Children’s Summer Camp!

 

Welcome to a real horse farm!  A farm that not only rescues and rehabilitates horses and ponies in need, but also educates the public in a mission to infuse compassion for all animals into every individual encountered.  Amaryllis is a farm where purity, truth and gentleness prevail.

 

We welcome the addition of several small farm animals to our facility.  Our "Barnyard Buddies" will assist us in helping the wee ones come closer to nature, become more aware of the feelings of others and to learn how amazing it feels to be loved by an animal.

 

Please welcome our new friends born to a rescued mom in Kentucky!  They will help us to teach compassion and animal care to all:

 

 

   AND     

          Octaveous                                    Lancelot

Thank you Elaina for sponsoring Octaveous!

 

Thank you Denise for sponsoring Lancelot! 

 

Please stop by and say hello to the EASTER BUNNY!  After his rounds delivering Easter eggs all over the country, he decided that Amaryllis was a most special place and this is where he would like to live!  He is now know here as Peter Cottontail (we cannot have everyone knowing it's really him!) Thank you Amelia for sponsoring Peter! 

You just did something that matters Amelia!  Thank you!!!

Becky Ducky has moved in with her sister Daisy!  Come visit them! Becky needs a sponsor! $10 monthly will keep her safe, happy and healthy at the rescue!  Come sponsor her for the year and get your photo on the website! Be the friend she needs!

Daisy Ducky is so excited to live at Amaryllis and with her sister! Daisy needs a sponsor! $10 monthly will keep her safe, happy and healthy at the rescue!  Come sponsor her for the year and get your photo on the website!  Be the friend she needs!

 

If horse and pony sponsorship is out of your reach, please sponsor the ducks! Every animal that has sought safe haven at Amaryllis needs a sponsor. The feed companies care not about the stories of the rescues, only about their monies due!

 

Welcome "ROMEO" our newest rescue!  He is an elderly rooster and was found by Molly and Rachel being literally torn apart by a young, strong rooster... This is what he looked like when first saved.

Please consider sponsoring him.  He has taken charge of the duck/chicken community and is a gentle and kind leader.

 

Update: The New Chicken Coop has arrived!

  

 

 

Older students will pursue their dreams of a summer full of horses and learn much about the following:

                   

     • Grooming equipment and it's use and why

 

     • Lunging for horse and for rider

 

     • Grooming for health and socialization

 

     • Feed & Feeding horses and ponies of all ages

    

     • Tack for both english and western riding

 

     • Bathing the horses

 

     • Stable Maintenance, general management and cleaning practices

 

     • Riding english and riding western, occasionally bareback!

 

     • Tons of Games & Crafts...the FUN never ends!

 

The award winning head counselor for pony tails camp 2008 is none other than the A.S.P.C.A Child Hero of the Year! The combined efforts and expertise of Rachel and her mom are a blessing to all who enroll in camp.  A truly wonderful summer is assured! Secure your spot today! Classes are LIMITED!

Montauk Hwy to Sagg rd.  Head north over bridge and 1st rd on right is Merchants Path. First right on Merchants is Ranch Court where you will park ON THE SAME SIDE OF THE ROAD AS THE BARN IS ON. No cars allowed in our driveway. 

Park only on one side of the street.

Hours to visit daily are 1pm-4pm but appointments are preferred.
