Equestrian Employer Details
We are about to undergo a major renovation to convert this modest horse farm into a showjumping/training facility. It currently has one 14 horse barn and a smaller 6 horse barn. We currently have about 5 boarders of varying experience and disciplines that “came with” the property. It will be a little over a year once it starts for the renovation to be complete. We are relocating our training program from out of state to Banner Elk. Once we personally move in it will be a showjumping training and competition facility.
