About New Hope Farms CSA

New Hope Farms CSA sits in Livonia, New York, a quiet Livingston County community about 25 miles south of Rochester. This facility holds a perfect 5-star rating and offers something genuinely rare: horse boarding combined with a working CSA farm that produces fresh fruits and vegetables. That pairing means your horse lives on active agricultural land, not just a boarding lot. Livonia's rural character and proximity to Conesus Lake make it a popular area for horse owners who want space, scenery, and a real farm environment.

Services & Process

Horse boarding here means your horse is kept on a property that also functions as a working community-supported agriculture farm, so the land is actively managed and maintained year-round. Boarding typically includes stall or pasture options, regular feeding schedules, and access to clean water and shelter. The CSA side of the operation supplies members with seasonal produce, which speaks to the farm's commitment to land stewardship. Horse owners who care about the quality and management of the property their animals live on will appreciate that this isn't a single-use facility.

Service Area

New Hope Farms CSA serves horse owners in Livonia and throughout Livingston County. Riders and boarders from nearby Geneseo, Conesus, and the greater Rochester metro area also make the drive for the farm's unique setup. The facility's location off the beaten path gives horses plenty of room to roam.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does horse boarding include at a working CSA farm like this?
Boarding typically covers daily feeding, fresh water, turnout time, and shelter in a stall or pasture depending on your horse's needs. At a working farm, you also benefit from land that's actively managed for agriculture, which often means better pasture quality and consistent maintenance.
Can I visit my horse whenever I want?
Most boarding facilities in this area allow owner visits during reasonable daylight hours, though it's always a good idea to confirm specific access policies when you first tour the property. Some farms ask that owners check in with staff during busy periods, especially around feeding times.
Is the CSA membership separate from horse boarding?
Yes, the farm's CSA produce membership and horse boarding are separate services. You don't need to sign up for the CSA to board your horse, though some owners find it a nice bonus to receive fresh local produce from the same property where their horse lives.
What should I bring when I first tour the facility?
Come prepared with your horse's health records, including current vaccinations and a Coggins test, since most boarding facilities will ask for these before accepting a new horse. It also helps to bring a list of your horse's dietary needs, any medical conditions, and your preferred farrier and vet contacts.
How is the Livonia area for trail riding near the farm?
Livonia's location in Livingston County puts it close to several rural roads and green spaces suitable for hacking out, and Conesus Lake is just a short distance away. Riders in this region often connect with local equestrian clubs to find trail networks and organized rides in the area.
What vaccinations does my horse need before boarding?
Standard requirements at most New York boarding facilities include current vaccinations for Eastern and Western equine encephalitis, tetanus, West Nile virus, and rabies, along with an annual negative Coggins test for equine infectious anemia. Always confirm the specific requirements directly with the farm before move-in day.
