What’s New Here



We have just opened a new used tack store at the Flea Market on 41 and 92. The store is opened on Saturday and Sunday every weekend from 9am till 5pm. We sell other odds and ends at our store as well. Books, clothes of all ages, lamps, horse blankets, and more. You are more than welcome to donate your items to us to help us raise money for the horses. We have nice new saddles that just arrived, the prices are very reasonable. They range from 8 inch to 18 inch western saddles.

For directions call 770-815-3663. All money goes to the horses, trust me we need all we can get to pay vet bills, and feed the horses.

We are also starting beginner riding lessons on Sundays. The more students we get the more days we will add. We have a wonderful pony named Jingles and Amadeus who is Haflinger cross. Both are wonderful with children. We also have Lucy Lu my Walk-A-Loosa mare who we use in the Special Olympics. I am looking forward to getting started with our lesson program, and working with the kids or adults. All children are required to wear a helmet while riding, no exceptions!

Sign up for our Summer riding camp starting 0n July 14-18th. Hours will be from 8am till 5pm, we will offer early drop-off and late pick up within reason. $200.00 per child a $100:00 deposit is due before June 15th after June 15th we will offer your slot to someone else. Deposit is nonrefundable. We will have limited space, so sign up now.

We will teach the children how to properly clean and care for a horse, ride, play games on horses, and off. Arts and crafts will also be offered. Bring a sack lunch.

Hope to see ya in July!

Please help support your local rescues, we need your help to help them. Every rescue is in need for everyone to help in some way. The prices of hay and feed are out of control. Horses are being starved, shot or even dumped. I have never seen it this bad. We can no longer take in anymore horses without the help of the public. I not only speak for our rescue, I speak for all the rescues. Please help the horses! They did not ask to be brought into this; they had no choice. We have a choice to give them the life they deserve. I have never had to beg for anything in my life, but I will for the sake of the life of a horse.

Amadeus thanks you for your support. He has friends that he wants to continue to be his friends with, with your help. Twister is a 4 year old Arabian mare, Jingles is a 11 year old Shetland pony, Gizmo is a 3 year old Haflinger. Two of the three horses were turned over to Harmony Meadows Equine Rescue from either being starved or just miss understood. Amadeus was bought by me because his family was going through a divorce. Amadeus is here to stay, and to help us bring joy to the children's hearts. I hope to have him join the team for Special Olympics this year as well as jingles if all works out.

Harmony Meadows Equine Rescue, Inc. horses and family thank you for your support.

wishing you much success with your rescue- it's a blessing to have people that care about animals go the extra mile to save them. We recently took the kids to a rescue here in Illinois and it was amazing to hear the horrible stories that the horses had gone through before they were rescued. Our son got to ride on a very tame Clydesdale horse it was amazing. I never knew horses could be trained so well especially after such neglect. Wishing you and the horses much success-
