Big thanks to one of our staff member Eli and her mum for allowing us to ship our beloved George and Fitzy for a holiday on their property in Eskdale.

We all know how hard this year has been on farmers, and unfortunately we are no exception with 50+ horses to feed.
We are so grateful they are taking some of the load off of us for a while and Fitzy and George are happy to be enjoying 100 acres of grass ❤️

Winter is here !! 🥶❄️☃️

We happily welcomed the frosty, cold and wet weather we experienced this weekend! Winter is a magical time on year in the high country.
Not only is open, but it’s a great time to get on horseback: getting all of the views of the snowcapped mountains.
Don’t be scared, brave winter in the Victorian High Country ! 🏔️

Two things you need to remember on our all day rides.

1. Don’t forget to tap the bill
2. The cake travels better on slower horses

We miss them already, don’t we Eli ? 😂😂

Horse Retirement

Spring Spur will be offering a number of selected horses for sale and retirement in the coming months.

Due to the number of responses received in the past we have decided to create a webform for prospective homes to fill in. If we feel that your home would match one of our horses currently for sale we will contact you with further information.
We have available two beautiful older mares that would suit families and a more laid back lifestyle and two geldings who would be perfect ‘husband horses’ in experienced homes.

Non negotiables:
🐴The horse must be paddocked with other horse/s
🐴This will be a forever home. The contract of sale will include a first right of refusal clause, meaning that if the horse is not suitable, or your circumstances change, Spring Spur will be offered the horse before any other arrangements are made.
🐴The horse will receive ongoing care including regular farrier, worming, veterinary checks and supplementary feeding where necessary.

If you would like to express your interest please fill out the form by following this link: https://forms.gle/BFJs7MKaNtEcVxoo6

Spring Spur has not just been a home for the Baird family, but rather a place for everyone, a unique farm where friends, family staff, and guests gather to share adventures, stories, education and history, a place where the spirit the horse is treasured and admired, where food is grown and cooked with love. The poem below written by Steve’s mother, Pat, pays homage to these values.

First the stable for the beasts, second the house for shelter, then the garden for sustenance.

Each growing strength & form, beauty of structure, soundness; together they make a place in the mountains arms.

People are like the things they build, be it bricks or breakfast, food is cooked together, enjoyed Together, flavoured by love & laughter.

Keep building this rambling, unruly & embracing thing we call family.
