Welcome to
Dream Rider Farm
We believe in respecting our horses, learning and having fun with them - at the barn, in the ring, on the trails or at the show.
Philosophy
We want our horses happy, sound, with the right weight and a shiny coat. We believe in feeding the best and as close as possible to the way nature intended horses to eat - continuous grazing. We want our boarders to be worry-free and we want to cater to the needs of each horses as if he was our own. Our private "boutique" barn (12 stalls) allows us to offer a personalized and attentive care.

Michel Sturm, Owner
Michel has been caring for horses at her home stable for more than 10 years - from ponies to fancy dressage horses. She decided to expand her TLC to outside boarders in 2013. She always try to accommodate each owner's needs and gets the best care for their horses. She has competed successfully to First Level all over the New England area. She loves to spend time on the trails too, which is why she chose DRF to be just off the North Salem Bridal Path - what is good for the mind of the riders is also good for the mind of their horses!
