Blue Star Equiculture believes that a community can come together to take care of our nation’s homeless horses.  If everyone does a little, we can achieve a lot.  With this in mind, we have established the Join the Herd program.  For as little as $10 / month, you can do your part to help care for the 30 homeless or retired horses at Blue Star Equiculture.

It is Blue Star Equiculture’s goal to get 1,000 Herd Members.  At that level, Herd Members, through their small consistent donations every month, will pay for the food and care of the Blue Star Herd.  We can achieve sustainability if we all give a little bit to the overall cause.

In appreciation for your Herd Membership, Blue Star Equiculture offers a number of benefits to our members.
