Background
Heart to Heart Morgans, LLC is a small family owned breeding farm located between Buffalo and Rochester in Alexander, NY. We breed and train Morgan horses for their calm temperament and for show or pleasure. Foals are handled from birth to ensure well rounded horses. We also offer English and western riding lessons, training, pony rides and group activities.
Scouts and Scouters - (From their website)
Heart to Heart Morgans, LLC is dedicated to bringing educational and enriching content to scouting programs of all ages for both boys and girls. Many of our staff members are long-time scouts and scouters that have earned their respective organizations' highest awards, including the GSA Gold Awards. We employ instructors and leaders certified by the Girl Scouts of America, and BSA-certified merit badge councilors. An outline of our activites for scouts are below.
