Charmingfare Farm's new "Driving Club" is a great hands-on opportunity for you to learn how to drive our horses. Enjoy miles of trails, gentle teams of horses, knowledgeable teamsters committed to providing a safe, fun-filled horse driving experience.
We use light horses, Percheron drafts and a team of very large dapple grey draft mules. All of the horses and even the mules are the same animals we use to give rides to the public during our events.
