We offer private trail rides, basic riding lessons, day camps, retreats, Bible studies, and much more. Our focus is on serving people. We believe that the best thing for the inside of a human is the outside of a horse, as Winston Churchill put it. Because we are still small, we can offer more customized care for our clients. Simplicity Farms is a private farm. All visits need to be scheduled ahead by appointment only.

I currently have a small private practice as a Christian Equine Assisted Psychotherapist, Art Therapist, and Licensed Counselor on an acre with my two horses. I am looking for a partner to expand with, sell my property contributing half to a ranch retreat stable (or portion if community of Christians partnering), open to possibilities, lessons, boarding, therapy, training, trail rides, retreats with art and horses. Open to relocating anywhere with mild winters in a beautiful location, preferably green, not arid, with large stables on acreage. Could be a small community of Christians developing different aspects of property/rural agricultural or cottage industries.

National Horse Camp: Choose a one or two week resident horse camp designed for new beginners to intermediate and advanced riders ages 8-10 & 11-15.

Each student is assigned their very own guest ranch horse at check-in...this horse will become your child's faithful companion during their National Horse Camp adventure! This week or two week long camp is a 'horse power' experience your kids will never forget! With only eight to ten campers accepted per session, parents can rest at ease and know that each child will receive all of the personal attention they need during their stay at our Tennessee guest ranch.

Students ride twice daily under the National Horse Camp Director. Each morning starts out with an in depth horsemanship class, followed by a two hour formal riding lesson in hunt seat, dressage, or western pleasure. Each student progresses at their own pace during the week while learning a variety of riding disciplines. After the formal morning lesson, it's time to pack our saddlebags and hit the trail! Don't forget to pack your Bibles for Bible Study on the trail! Our young equestrians learn all about what the Bible has to say about horses! Afterward, it's time for a little bareback riding through the river!

Young equestrians at the Tennessee guest ranch learn about horses from the ground up! During this incredible program, each young equestrian will acquire an enormous "in depth" knowledge by caring for their horse daily, participating in feeding and nutritional programs, hoof care and farrier education, and medical care. For those serious horse enthusiasts who are considering becoming a veterinarian, there's even more to learn in our pre-veterinarian courses! Learn how to give shots, float teeth, administer medications, treat and prevent leg injuries, use ultra sound machines, and lots more!

Egan, TX


Christian trail ride in north Texas occurring the 2nd weekend of each month. Everyone is invited to join us in a trail ride event, usually somewhere in north Texas. This is a ministry of Shepherd's Valley Cowboy Church, Egan, TX & is noted as one of the best trail ride groups found anywhere.

Please go to the church web site (listed), go to the Horseback Ministries tab, then to Trail Ride Ministry. There you will find the locations & dates we'll be going, along with a list of suggested items to take.

This is family oriented. No drinking or profanity allowed. All trails have been scouted out before taking the complete group & our trail bosses have a minimum of 20 years experience. Most trails are for beginners or intermediate riders. See listing on church web site for information.

Rides are normally from Friday through Sunday with devotion each morning before we ride out.

There is no charge for the events, just the cost of food & entry.
