Humble Hooves- Cobble Hill

Humble Hooves in Cobble Hill is a unique equestrian facility and club that focuses on the human and horse connection through animal-assisted activities. They offer programs that help individuals develop life skills such as leadership, teamwork, communication, and self-reflection through interactions with their horses, goats, chickens, bunnies, and farm dogs. The facility also takes in horses in need of support, care, and rehabilitation, ultimately finding forever homes for them.

Humble Hooves hosts private events on their farm, providing a serene and intimate setting for gatherings, celebrations, and retreats. They also offer educational experiences with horses, wellness sessions that include horsemanship activities, and horse-powered reading programs that use horses as facilitators for interactive literacy activities.

The team at Humble Hooves, led by owners Tammera and Jason Merkens, are dedicated Certified Equine Assisted Learning Facilitators who work alongside a certified facilitator named Emily. Clients have praised the facility for its transformative and magical environment that fosters deep learning and personal growth.

Humble Hooves is committed to building a new relationship based on honour and respect with the first peoples of the land they operate on, including the Malahat, Lake Cowichan, Quwutsun, Halalt, Penelakut, Stzuminus, and Lyackson Peoples. Visitors are welcome to connect with Humble Hooves through their website or social media to learn more about their programs and events.
