Welcome to Trinity Fellowship

Even if you're not riding, you have to dress for safety around the farm and around 1800 lb horses who wear steel shoes on their feet. Here are some of the rules and guidelines for attire and footwear around the farm.

• Safe Footwear: Closed toe shoes. Manure happens and it's around. The closer you want to be to the horses, the more of it you will end up taking home with you. If that's a problem for you, bring a bag and a spare pair of shoes so you can change when you get in your car. Crocs are never appropriate (ask me how I know this). Flip Flops will have me lending you muck boots because I will fear for your toes and trust me, you probably don't want to borrow our muck boots. if you want to wear something more country appropriate, think more along the lines of contractor and Carhartt or Barbour than Yellowstone. And definitely not rhinestone cowboy. If you're thinking Elvis, well then my horses might laugh.

• Weather-Appropriate Clothing: Check the forecast and dress in layers if necessary. A light jacket can be handy for cooler evenings in the summer and bring about every layer you can fit under a coat in the winter. Barns are not clean places and there is dust that accumulates from the horse's bedding, the riding footing, and just from blowing in with the wind. While we try to keep a clean environment, please keep in mind that we would love for you to come dressed casually so that you do not have to worry about your clothing. If you want to pitch in, a good pair of leather work gloves is the best investment you can make, for any season. Also, if there is a breeze, we ALWAYS have about 10-15 mph more in Cream Ridge. It's wonderful in the summer but can be cooler than you expect at times.

• Sun Protection: If the event is outdoors, don’t forget sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat. Hats are fantastic. If we are out for a schooling event or horse show during the summer PLEASE bring a hat. Bugspray is always a good idea at any outdoor event in NJ.

The Events at Trinity Fellowship

Trinity Fellowship hosts a range of horse centered events like foxhunting, cross country schooling, horse trials, steeplechase events, polo, training sessions and schooling days and will be working with each individual fellowship group to arrange events. Some options include days with nearby Cream Ridge Winery, Screaming Hill Brewery, and Working Dog Winery. We also want to make the farm available for picnic days or just a chance to clear your head.

Networking Opportunities

In the spirit of Stephen's love of making new friends wherever he went, we know that The Fellowship can provide a unique platform for networking. Whether you are a horse lover, love the fresh air, or just looking for a new way to build a relationship with a new team member or potential client, time spent with horses or at one of our farm based events can be magical and memorable.

Trinity Dressage has maintained a strong network of connections in the horse community and beyond and works closely with numbers charitable organizations, clubs and organizations that are within and support the horse community and agriculture. Trinity Dressage maintains a strong relationship with Rutgers University and is awarded the status as a Gold Star Farm for our efforts in conservation and stewardship of the land and management of resources and livestock. With a strong reputation in the community we hope that we can offer the understanding of professionalism and integrity that is necessary to maintain meaningful relationships.
