Alpha & Omega Farm is a 45-acre facility that has a nice mix of natural and shady areas and open
pastures enclosed by solid 3-board fencing. Each of our 5 fields (to be cross-sectioned into paddocks)
vary in size from medium turnouts, to pastures with 8-15 acres in which
horses may graze and roam as they please. Our pastures provide shade
from the blazing South Carolina sun in the form of large mature trees and the
horses are granted free access to a fresh water supply
through daily cleaned troughs. Aditionally we have a rotational grazing system so the horses are
periodically rotated from each pasture in an effort to prevent the over-grazing of any one field and preserve the value in each area. Additionally, they are
dragged (for manure spreading) and weed treated along fence lines.
Our fields from May to October are so lush with bahia grass it's usually not
necessary to offer your horse additional hay. In the winter months
however, it's important horses receive hay in order to get roughage
intake; Therefore in winter only we feed Alfalfa or Alfalfa/grass mixture. Fresh water in clean troughs is available at all
times. Fences
are 'barb wire free'. All fencing we use is safe for horses. We do
not use any kind of barb wire which can be a major hazard.
