Sierra Feed & Saddlery has become our number one place to buy wild bird seed. We love our wild…read morebirds and enjoy helping them get through the winter, by feeding them for the winter months. With that said it has been harder and harder to justify spending the money on seed because of the increasing prices or lack of quality at the big box stores. We normally buy the no mess blend from Moana Lane Nursery but at $59 for 20 pounds it hard to swallow. On a whim today we stopped here and took a look around. The very helpful gal at the counter pointed out the extensive selection of seed and yes they had a no mess 20 pound blend with a wide verity of seed in it. But how much is it? It is only $33, that's it. We will definitely be back and highly recommend stopping in.

I have been here twice and received great service both times. Most the of the feed stores have…read morelimited information online. You don't really know what they sell until you make a visit. This store has a lot of bulk bins for bird needs, such as chicken starter, scratch, meal worms, different seeds. I also saw some things for rabbits in the bulk bin area. It is a good way to try things or take care of your pets without buying everything in large packages. For example, if you are going to make a rare trip to chickadee ridge and need some bird seeds, you can use the bulk bin to get the amount you need for the hike. They have black oil sunflower seed in the bin too. This store carries organic chicken feed and also in a corn free soy free formula. They also sell poultry bedding which I didnt notice at another store. It contains de and zeolite already mixed in there. They sell stuff for horses and dogs too.

We had an absolutely wonderful experience at Piping Rock Horses! My sister and I both agreed it was…read morethe best horseback ride we've ever done. Our guide, Kiera, was fantastic -- knowledgeable, relaxed, encouraging, and clearly wonderful with both people and horses. The scenery was breathtaking, and the ride felt like a real adventure rather than just following a trail in a line. We crossed a beautiful river twice, rode through gorgeous mountain terrain, and truly got to experience the landscape. My horse, Buckwheat, was such a character and made the ride even more fun. We especially appreciated that the ride felt personal, peaceful, and authentic. You can tell the horses are well cared for and that the guides genuinely love what they do. Highly, highly recommend this experience if you're looking for a scenic and memorable ride in the Truckee/Tahoe area!

Our daughter had the most wonderful experience at Farm and Pony camp. It was a perfect blend of…read morespecial time with the farm animals (holding baby bunnies! walking goats!), learning to care for the animals (branding manes and tails, picking horseshoes, touring the stables), crafts, and pony rides. And I was blown away by the pony show on Friday morning! The counselors were so caring and great with the kids and 4-H values and true equestrian skills are evident in all the kids learn in a short 5 days. I cannot say enough what a gem this place is. Only one exit down the road from downtown Truckee but a world away and we could pick her up at lunch and still have a family afternoon together. We felt so lucky that we found out about this camp. We will definitely be back!

What an absolutely heartwarming and creative idea for a place! It's hard to believe no one thought…read moreof this sooner. We all have a few pieces of extra tack hanging around that we know we're never going to use again. It feels too wasteful to just toss it, especially when we spent so much on it, and let's be honest, we're all a bit tired of looking at it, right? But we also know it could really help someone else out. Plus, it's just taking up space! Now, those items can truly make a difference for the amazing people who dedicate their time to going to auctions and rescuing these beautiful horses, giving them a second chance at life. It's shocking to realize how many horses are purchased at auctions, only to be shipped off in such cruel conditions to slaughterhouses in Mexico or Canada. The heartbreaking truth is that around 90% of these horses are perfectly rideable and in good health, not old or sick like many people assume. And with prices skyrocketing to $5 per pound, this issue is more pressing than ever!
