Join us and network with Ocala’s movers and shakers at our annual October farm event, where we host the Ocala Chamber of Commerce  Equine Initiative Monthly Meeting.

Check out the special visitors set up under the trees overlooking our arena, catered by Sisters Place, Williston, with homemade ice cream from Jersey’s Creamery.

Travel 225a or 225 north and take the scenic route to
Mary Phelps and Wayne Humphrey’s Farm in NW Marion County
Just 5 miles from the Ocala Jockey Club.

The home of the famous “Flying Gangsters” Ponies and World Champion Cefnoakpak Bouncer. Did you know that three of the six ponies in our barn are Breyer Ponies?

At this event, we offer members the opportunity to set up under the trees by our arena to network and visit.

See who’s coming
