The fundraising for the hay continues at a rapid pace. Thank you everyone so much for your generosity! We have raised the funds for 411 bales thanks to all the extremely generous donations.

Today we spent time with the new rescued horses. We realized today that this great big beautiful Percheron cross is the big number 500! Wow, that is 500 horses that NorCal Equine Rescue has rescued and placed. Where would all these horses have been if Tawnee had just kept her eyes shut to the plight […]

Auction day! Early this morning Tawnee and her mom headed out for their Mothers Day fun at the auction. The day started off with a bad enough omen, about 6 miles from our ranch, the truck got a sudden flat. Unable to fend for themselves they had to call Jason to come fix their problem. Once Jason […]

We desperately need more hay support with all the horses coming into our rescue and the high cost of hay. We currently have 22 hay bales we can count […]
