See you August 29th @ the Emsdale Fall Fair at 10am!

Fair Fun Friday! This pair are so popular, we keep asking them back!
Armstrong's Thunder Ridge Farm will be back on Saturday August 29th to have you riding pioneer style through the streets of Emsdale after they lead our parade at 10am.
Aren't they so beautiful?!
The Thunder Ridge Team can be seen at many district fairs and festivals but they are most well known for their magical winter sleigh rides ❄🐴❄

Happy Birthday to the man behind this beautiful team of horses at Thunder Ridge Farm.

The one who drives these big boys with steady hands, hauls them from place to place without a complaint, and cares for them with the kind of dedication most people never see.

Today is about celebrating you—the quiet, behind‑the‑scenes work, the early mornings, the grooming of trails, the maintence for both sleigh and horses, the long hauls. He keeps the wheels turning, the horses happy, and the rest of us pretending we know what we’re doing.

Thunder Ridge wouldn’t be what it is without you! Please take a moment to thank Dan for all the things he does to keep providing these services the best he can!

What an incredible end to the 2025 season, and a busy 2 weeks of holiday craziness it’s been. From the jingling harness bells to the sound of families laughing under the Christmas lights, our holiday sleigh rides were truly something special. We’re so grateful for every single person who bundled up, made the trip to the farm, and shared a little Christmas magic with Rocket, Rebel, and the whole Thunder Ridge crew.

We also want to extend a sincere apology to the families we weren’t able to get out to during the rain and freezing rain. Safety—for our guests and our horses—will always come first, and we appreciate your understanding more than you know.

As we head into the rest of winter, we’ll be shifting to weekend sleigh rides only, and we’ll keep rolling as long as the snow sticks around. ❄️

Thank you again for supporting our small farm, loving our animals, and making this season unforgettable. We can’t wait to see you on the next ride.

— The Thunder Ridge Team 🐴✨

Whether you’re celebrating the season, starting a new tradition, or just looking for a peaceful winter escape, we’d love to share the ride with you.

Merry Christmas Thunder Ridge Family
