Being a not for profit equine rescue, there is always a need for donations. Donations come in many forms and all are appreciated.
We are in NEED of round and square baled hay to get us through the long Ohio winter. The crops we usually put up for the horses, were less than adequate due to the wet summer. We can purchase good quality square baled horse quality hay for $3.00 per bale delivered and stacked in the barn. Round bales are running us $30.00 a piece for 1500 lb bales, delivered.
If you would like to donate to help us with hay for the horses, please click on the paypal link below and be sure to mark your donation for HORSE HAY.
Blanket request: Ohio winters can be brutal and ours is soon to be here.
We are in need of donated new/used blankets for the horses of DBFR.
If you have an old one that you are no longer using, please consider donating it to a Drafty Barn horse today. He/she will be forever grateful to be snuggly and warm when the temps are cold and the snow is flying.
Even those in need of repair are welcomed as we can do the repair work ourselves to save money.
ALL sizes are needed as we have a variety of different sized horses here at all times.
We have listed a few of the urgent needs for our horses, below.
Thanks for considering the horses of Drafty Barn Farm Rescue!
