Elizabeth Freeman,
Farm owner & manager of 10 years

I’m an experienced equine business, sales, breeding, & trip consultant in Montana and the surrounding areas

With over 30 years of real-world, practical equine experience, I am passionate about helping people make smart, wellbeing-oriented, financially-savvy decisions about all things equine-related.

Equine & Ranch Consulting

My lifelong involvement with horses gives me the knowledge and experience to make your equine business journey as joyful as possible - whether you are selling, buying, or looking to breed quality youngstock, I have the experience to ensure your financial investment is sound and that the process is fulfilling and empowering. 

I deeply love warmbloods, dressage, and eventers, and have built a broad network of breeders, owners, and trainers across Northwestern Montana.

I have over 30 years of experience packing and riding horses in the backcountry, and have a unique understanding of what differentiates a weekend warrior horse from a true backcountry partner.

I provide consulting services for…

  • Herd improvement, health/supplement/feed plan

  • Breeding/bloodline research - choosing the right mares/stallions

  • Sales, marketing, & prep for sales

  • Purchasing, evaluating, and vet checking

  • Appraisals of personal horses

  • Business - boarding businesses, running a profitable equine business

  • … and more!

Make the best return on your investment - hire a professional

Consulting rates start at $100/hr

and include a video recording of our call and a written summary. On-site evaluations for properties, horses, etc. available for an additional cost
