Who We Are
Founded in 2006 by Stephanie Demmon, Sage Hill Farm found its home in the Hudson Valley—a peaceful haven for those seeking a retreat from the city. Surrounded by wide-open views and beautiful sunsets, this special place was born. It quickly became a top-notch equestrian facility, welcoming riders looking to hone their skills and build a sense of community.
The legacy of New York's elite families lives on here, adding depth to the history of the land. The old architecture takes on new life. But it's not just a place; it's a transformative journey, especially for young women. Through careful mentoring, riders build not only skills but also a strong sense of empowerment. As they leave the farm, they take with them valuable abilities and a confident mindset that serves them well beyond the competitive arena.
