2023: 

Open for volunteers and visitors on our regular open days Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday from 10 to 4.  

 

SEPTEMBER 19 and 26 - New Volunteer Orientation. 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. 

Volunteers are needed to assist with the programs and day to day operations and horse care. As we begin the new season we will be having a volunteer orientation on Tuesday, September 19 and Tuesday, September 26 from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. The orientation is open to anyone interested in volunteering at ESS. No horse experience is necessary, just a desire to learn and be a part of the wonderful team of dedicated volunteers who make Equine Spirit Sanctuary a special place for learning, healing and meaningful experiences.

SEPTEMBER 23 - BOOTH AT THE TAOS FLEA MARKET, KTAOS parking lot, starting at 8 a.m. We have lots of great horse stuff to sell - tack and equipment, books and videos, feeding supplies, grooming supplies. All proceeds go towards buying hay for our horses.
