Frostbite Farm · North Augusta, SC
At Frostbite Farm, we offer comprehensive programs tailored to your horse's specific needs and goals. Whether you're starting a young prospect, rehabilitating a troubled partner, or advancing your dressage skills, our boutique approach ensures individual attention and measurable progress.
Our 90-day foundation program is built around following each horse's lead. Every young horse is a unique individual -- some progress ahead of schedule while others need more time to develop confidence and understanding. The timeline is a framework, not a deadline.
Phase 1
Phase 2
Behavioral and physical problems are almost always interconnected. A horse that is explosive, resistant, or shut down is communicating -- and our job is to listen. Through patient, methodical ground retraining, we have transformed horses considered dangerous into supple, adjustable partners their owners are proud to ride.

Success Spotlight
Jordan
A Saddlebred x Belgian draft mare who arrived with a history of draw rein use, Amish driving training, and dangerous behaviors that had left her previous handlers injured. Through patient, systematic ground retraining -- starting from the very beginning and never skipping a step -- Jordan was transformed into a supple, adjustable horse who meets her rider with curiosity instead of fear. Her story is a reminder that every horse, given the right environment and communication, wants to say yes.
We intentionally maintain a herd of 6 to 8 horses. That limit is not an accident -- it means every horse in our care receives daily individual attention from someone who knows their quirks, their moods, and their needs. This is not a large training operation where horses blend into the routine. This is a family farm where your horse matters.
Stall Board
Individual stalls with bedding, daily feeding, and structured daily turnout in paddocks or grass fields. Ideal for horses who need more monitoring or who prefer the security of a stall overnight.
Pasture Board
Large grass fields with run-in shelter access. Horses live as naturally as possible with herd socialization and free movement -- excellent for easy keepers and horses who thrive outside.

What Makes Frostbite Different
Most facilities are either a pure boarding barn where horses go unhandled for days, or a high-volume training barn where your horse is one of forty. Frostbite Farm is neither. Every horse here receives daily handling, exposure to both English and Western work as appropriate, and the kind of individualized attention that only a boutique operation can offer. You'll always know your horse, and we'll always know yours.
Classical Dressage
Our dressage training follows the classical progression -- correct movement developed from the ground up, with connection and suppleness as the goal rather than forced frame. We work horses through Second Level with an emphasis on the quality of training at each step before advancing.

Lesson & Training Options
We are accepting contract reservations for 2026 and 2027 foals. Booking early ensures your young horse has a dedicated space during the most formative months of their development -- and that we have the time to do the job properly. Spaces are strictly limited.
We are also glad to reach out directly to breeding barns on your behalf. If you have a breeding planned or a foal on the ground, the earlier we connect, the better we can structure the right program for that individual.
Every horse is different. Every program we build is different. Reach out and let's talk about where your horse is and where you want to go together.
