Chance
Farm is a 5 acre property located
in Northern California, in the Sacramento Valley.
Conveniently located, we have easy access to all major highways
in the area. We are 15 minutes from Murieta Equine
Complex, a premier show venue which hosts several major
competitions each year, in addition to clinics and
symposiums. We are also near many other show facilities
including a schooling show series directly next door. We
are 45 minutes from UC Davis Equine Medical Center and within 15
minutes of four local veterinarians.

Arena Maintenance
We believe that
arena footing is vital to the success of our training program
and we are committed to keeping our footing in the best possible
condition. We have all the necessary equipment,
including a water truck for quick and even watering. We harrow 6
days/week, and water the arena as needed. This is
often twice per day in the summer, so that afternoon riders also
have the benefit of a groomed arena. Heidi’s husband
Geoff, in addition to his regular job, does excavation, builds
arenas and is an excellent mechanic.
