Hay Burr Inn Equine Rescue & Sanctuary is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. These are donation-based fundraisers to help with the care and upkeep of the horses and donkey.
Your DONATIONS are greatly appreciated for us to continue to rescue equines and give them a second chance to enjoy life and just be a horse.
For event information, please text or call 860.932.2092. We appreciate your understanding as we are all volunteers and on event day we are busy preparing and may not be able to answer or reply within the same day. If your question is regarding the event, please refer to the information here first. Thank you and we can't wait to see you.
Footwear First! The trail is a natural dirt path that may be uneven, muddy, or potentially icy in winter weather. Please wear warm, closed-toe boots or sturdy shoes that you don't mind getting a little earthy.
Leave Pets at Home: For the safety and comfort of our rescued animals, please leave your loved pets at home.
Accessibility Note: Please be aware that the trail is unpaved. Navigating with wheelchairs, strollers, or wagons on the uneven, wooded path is at your own discretion. Please proceed with caution.
Keep it Clean and Green: No smoking, vaping, or alcohol is permitted on the property. Please use the provided receptacles for trash. Volunteers appreciate your help on this one.
Do Not Feed Animals: Our rescues are on special diets and it is important for their well-being to stick to them. Feeding does not occur during fundraisers other than the hay we provide to them.
Please patiently wait for the red gate to open for entrance to the event. The gate is to keep the horses safe on the property.
We do offer private tours by appointment all year round for a donation.
