The Birth Of The CHORE TIME Clydesdale Experience

"CAN WE COME AND SEE YOUR CLYDESDALES AND SPEND TIME WITH THEM?"

We've gotten these questions for years at JFP Equine.

We loved it. And we wanted to create a format to make it happen, not just for close family and friends who knew us, but for Clydesdale enthusiasts everywhere.

But it took us a while.

We wanted to do it in the right way.

Something different. Something unique. And something that would allow for a very special hands-on experience, typically not available or even thought possible.

That's when we came up with the CHORE TIME Clydesdale Experience.

Sure, there are opportunities out there to 'see' Clydesdales, whether up close or from afar.

But how many have the opportunity to truly 'experience' Clydesdales? Spend a couple of hours with them. Get to know them. Watch them. Listen to them. Take pictures with them. And even get hands on with the daily duties that care for them.

That's what the CHORE TIME Clydesdale Experience was meant to offer ... two hours of Clydesdale awesomeness in a unique, intimate setting of no more than four in a group.

Just don't let the words "CHORE TIME" fool you.

We're not putting you to work for two hours cleaning horse manure (if that's what you are thinking).

No, CHORE TIME is as much about pettin', snugglin', picture takin' and just simply spending time with Clydesdales, and experiencing BARN LIFE with this iconic breed, as it is about real 'work' of any kind.

We basically have three goals for CHORE TIME Clydesdale Experience participants:

1) Learn some Clydesdale fun facts.

2) Take part in hands on Clydesdale activities that give you some bragging rights amongst family and friends (I mean, how many can say they have vacuumed a Clydesdale??)

3) Leave with some epic pictures. (Yes, we will make you check and recheck your pictures to make sure ... and we'll retake if needed to meet this important goal!).

Oh and one other thing.

Every barn has its story.

The CHORE TIME Clydesdale Experience weaves two hours through a story of our own.

One that started with a young boy born into the draft horse industry in a small, chilly town in the middle of Manitoba, Canada (ya, wayyyyy up north).

And one that saw that same boy grow up and eventually take the reins of the world's most iconic horse operation, the Budweiser Clydesdales, complete with over 325 head nationwide.

(It was kind of like a small town baseball fanatic growing up to run the Cardinals or Yankees or Dodgers.)

So if you have always wanted to truly 'experience' Clydesdales, consider the CHORE TIME Clydesdale Experience.

Are we the biggest Clydesdale operation? The fanciest?

Nah.

That's not our goal at this point. (Been there, done that.)

Our goal is to bring the experience of Clydesdales to life for enthusiasts just like you.

And we look forward to your visit.
