Full-Training and Lessons
Winning Time Training offers Hunter/Jumper lessons and training.
Accepting new in-barn and haul-in clients for H/J training and lessons: please call or message Zoe at 360.624.7189 to discuss whether Winning Time would be a good fit for you. Our riders attend rated shows along the west coast throughout the year, and also leave plenty of time for learning horsemanship and having fun together as a barn family.
Our riders generally own their own horse, but some partial and full leases may be available.

Boarding at Freeman Farm:
Barns: There are three options for full care boarding at Freeman Farm:
Turnout: We believe in the physical and mental benefits of turnout for horses. Horses are turned out 7 days a week year round. During summer they often are out for 16 hours. Shorter winter days mean that they may be out for 8-10 hours a day. Most of our turnouts are individual and range in size from 30x50 to 100 x 150. Some horses get along very well and enjoy sharing the larger pastures, but the owner is involved in any discussion about sharing pastures.
Arenas: We have an indoor arena 85 x 180 with sand and fiber footing, LED lighting, and an automatic sprinkler system. We also have an outdoor arena 100 x 200 with sand and rubber footing. Want to ride outside an arena? We have wide 50'+ paths around the turnouts that are great for riding out. It's a quarter mile from the outdoor arena to the back of the pasture, so lots of room to stretch your horse's legs. If that's not enough, you can ride down to the Molalla river where it's deep enough even in summer to swim your horse. There is also a turf riding field that is 8 acres.
Feeding: We provide quality eastern orchard hay daily - as much as each horse will eat; good forage should always be the foundation of a horse's diet. The hay is delivered by the semiload from the same supplier to minimize changes that can contribute to colic risk. Concentrates are included in board. We feed the ration balancer Enrich Senior for the majority of the horses who maintain condition beautifully on the hay; this ration balancer gives horses a prebiotic, vitamins, and minerals to complement what they get from forage and contains a full dose of Outlast for gut health. For those horses who do need more calories we feed Ultium Gold/Senior which has the prebiotic, vitamins, and minerals, a full dose of Outlast, plus Amplify for quality fats for calorie needs in a lower sugar feed. Neither of these feeds are inexpensive, however, we've seen the difference in the health of the horses and owners need to supplement less.
Restrooms: Let's be real...nobody loves a portapotty. Luckily we have two separate buildings with real toilet, shower and sinks for boarders. If you prefer a portapotty, we also have one of those spring through fall to support various Outreach shows and dog events hosted here.
- Loft Barn: The historic loft barn has ten stalls available. 8 normal sized and two double-sized ideal for mare and foal or some rehab needs. Each has automatic waterers. The barn has it's own tack and feed room. There is an exterior hot-water wash stall.
- Shed Row: The shed row barn features five oversize stalls with all-weather runs attached. Each stall has automatic waterers. The horses enjoy their misters for the hottest days. Shed row clients use either the Loft barn tack room or the South barn tack room.
- South Barn: The South barn finished a complete restoration in 2024. This historic structure now features 10 stalls, four grooming stalls, two hot-water wash stalls, a tack room and a feed room. Nine of the stalls are 12x16 with Ramm stall mattresses and all-weather runs. The tenth stall is matted oversize 10 x 18 for horses who prefer not to be next to other horses in a run (some mares!). Again, each stall has an automatic waterer and additionally has its own closed motor stall fan.
