Our Team

The Team - Equines & Humans

All of our Ponies and Horses  have been chosen for their exceptional temperaments. They really enjoy human contact, making for a fun, safe & positive equine experience!

Our Staff and Ponies are all in uniform to add that special touch to the day and some staff wear their Sugargum Farm Equestrian Vaulters uniform if they are a vaulter, however, all staff are experienced "horsey" people who have, or do attend  Vaulting, Pony Club, or Adult Riders and most own their own horse.

They are very patient and fantastic with the children ensuring a memorable and fun time is had by all and they just love answering all the questions parents and children throw at them!
