About

Our Story

At Golden Glade, we believe in the magic that happens when people, horses, and land grow together. Our journey is beginning  with Gigi's vision: to create a sanctuary where high performance horses with rare, beautiful coats—like silver dapple and champagne—could be bred, raised, and trained using natural horsemanship methods. Inspired by the breathtaking Australian landscape and guided by a deep respect for nature, we set out to build a community rooted in connection, kindness, and excellence.

Our mission is simple:

To nurture extraordinary horses, inspire human growth, and foster a thriving ecosystem where every being can reach their potential.

Whether you’re an experienced rider, a curious learner, or a passionate breeder, you’ll find a home here—a place where authenticity, lifelong learning, and partnership come first.

Our values guide everything we do:

• Respect for horses, people, and the land.

• Integrity in every action, on and off the saddle.

• Curiosity—always learning, always evolving.

• Community—supporting each other, celebrating together.

• Excellence—striving for the highest standards in horsemanship and stewardship.

How did we get here?

Golden Glade Ranch was born from years of hands-on experience, a love for rare horses, and a vision to blend traditional skills with modern, ethical training. We started small—just a handful of horses, lots of hard work, and big dreams. Along the way, we partnered with world-class trainers, embraced regenerative organic, syntropic farming, and built a program where every success is shared and every challenge is a lesson.

​

Today, Golden Glade stands as a testament to what’s possible when passion meets purpose. We invite you to join us on this journey—whether as a rider, student, breeder, or friend.
