Whether you are 5 or 75, just beginning your journey, or a life long equestrian, Valley Ridge Farm has what you need. The Valley Ridge Farm teaching philosophy emphasizes a reliance on teaching the fundamentals of classical equitation to a high degree of competency. This includes balance, calmness, and coordination. In other words, learning correctly from the very beginning. We pride ourselves on training skilled, independent riders, not instant riders.

These directions start at Pierpont Landing at the Pierpont Road exit 7 off of I-68 (across the overpass bridge from Glenmark Center & Lowe’s). It takes about 25 minutes from Pierpont Landing to Valley Ridge. 1. Start out on Cheat Rd / County Hwy-857 passing Pierpont Landing on your left. 2. From Pierpont Landing, you’ll drive less than a mile and come to a 3 way stop sign. Turn right onto Tyrone Avery Rd 3. You’ll be on Tyrone Avery Road about 1.8 miles or so before it comes to an end at a “T”. Turn right onto Tyrone Road (I don’t think there is a street sign). 4. You’ll be on Tyrone Road for just over 1/4 mile and then you’ll make the first left onto Snake Hill Rd. 5. You’ll be on Snake Hill Road for about 4 miles and then you need to start looking on the right side of the road for a sign that says “Valley Ridge Farm Next Left,” just before a picnic shelter in front of Sturgiss Chapel church. This is about a quarter mile AFTER Cales Road - do not turn off of Snake Hill Road until you reach Sturgiss Church! Just a few feet past Sturgis Chapel on your left, there is a little gravel road (Sturgiss School Road) directly before a big grey building which sometimes has dump trucks outside of it. Turn left onto this road. 6. You’ll be on this gravel road for a few miles, about 5-7 minutes. Go slow … part of it is one lane and there are a few parts with some big potholes! You’ll follow it all the way to a sharp right curve in the road. Go around that curve and down the hill. In about 2 minutes, you’ll see the outdoor ring on your right and the Valley Ridge Farm barn on the left.
