We have several special projects we need help with:
Shelter Construction: We have shelter kits to install. Need help top to bottom: layout square corners, setting anchors in concrete (our tractor has an auger), setting up panels and roofs, and attaching roof sheets to roof.
Install Shedrow Roofs: We have two eight-stall shedrow-like stalls that need roofs set-up (heavy lifting, have forks on tractor). Some panels need roof sheets installed.
Shed/Shelter Painting: We have two tack sheds that need interior painting, and a metal shelter that needs painting.
Electric Fence Monitoring/Installation: We have several areas of fencing and cross-fencing that need electric fencing installed
Fence Monitoring/Repairs/Installation: Fences require continual monitoring, maintenance, and upkeep. We can always use a hand installing new fencing or maintaining current fence lines. If you can re-sink a T-post, re-hang wire, or simply walking fence lines to monitor conditions, we need you. There is also an ongoing need for additional paddock/pen areas, and we need help installing small fence lines and/or panels.
Tree trimming/Mistletoe removal: There are many oak trees, pine trees, and other trees in the pastures and paddock areas. Many haven’t been trimmed for years, and several of the oaks are infested with mistletoe. These trees provide lots of good cover and shade for the horses, and we can’t afford to lose any. If you can trim low lying branches to protect eyes and/or remove mistletoe from even one tree, that’s one less we’ll need to worry about, and one more tree the horses can be safe beneath.
Wood cutting/splitting: Over the years, numerous trees have fallen in the pasture areas. The longer the trees are down and uncut, the greater the chance for wood rot. The wood can be cut and split for firewood, and sold as a fundraiser for the rescue. We’d be happy to share the wood, too.
Blackberry Removal: We have several blackberry brambles in our pastures. The hard, dry thorns are a hazard to the horses. We need help clearing areas to allow the horses to safely roam their pastures.
Poison Oak Removal: Several of us are terribly allergic to poison oak, and there is poison oak at various areas on the property. If you are not sensitive to it and can search for it and remove it or spray it, you'll save some of our volunteers from the agony of the itch!
