There’s nothing quite like the quiet of a warm February afternoon at The Hitching Company. The herd is busy enjoying the sunshine and a good scratch, but Houdini just had to come over and see what all the fuss was about.
Watching these guys relax is the best way to reset for the week ahead.

Just another evening at The Hitching Company! 🌅 Dolly and Spike are busy playing their favorite game: "Don't Touch Me." 🙅‍♀️🙅‍♂️

Meanwhile, Katie is making sure the paparazzi (me) isn't getting too close to the action. If looks could talk, she’d be asking for a manager! 💅✨

There’s something truly special about the annual Christmas Tree Bonfire. 🌲 Watching the neighborhood come together to share a meal, gather 'round the fire, and take a ride in our wagonette is the highlight of our season.

A huge thank you to everyone who brought their trees and their holiday spirit! We love being a part of your community traditions. 🐴✨

Luna might only be two, but she’s already a professional performer! 🎬 This is her daily "one-horse show" here at the farm. We love watching her let loose and show off those moves—there’s nothing better than seeing horses just get to be horses! ❄️💃

Follow us for more behind-the-scenes looks at life on the farm and the personalities that make our herd so special.

Caption: Luna is definitely feeling her oats this morning! 🐎✨ Most people see our horses during their calm, graceful tours through the North Loop, but behind the scenes at the stable? It’s all zoomies and excitement before the hay hits the feeder.

Stepping out of the shadows and into the spotlight! Meet Houdini, our 19-year-old Percheron cross. He may be a seasoned pro, but he still knows how to make an entrance at the barn.
Whether he’s pulling a carriage through the streets of Minneapolis or enjoying some quiet time in the stable, Houdini is the heart of The Hitching Company.

Nothing stops the breakfast rush—not even a "balmy" -3 degrees! 🥶

It’s a quiet Saturday morning here at The Hitching Company. While the team has the day off to stay warm, the herd is out enjoying the sunshine and some fresh hay. There’s something so peaceful about the sound of horses munching in the winter air.

Stay warm out there, everyone! 🧣☕️

Meet Rip, the newest member of the Hitching Company family! 🐎
This 10-year-old Percheron gelding has quite the resume:
✅ Ohio born
✅ Charleston raised
✅ Now serving the streets of the Twin Cities!
We were told he was the "perfect horse" for Minneapolis, and after seeing him in action, we have to agree. Come say hi to him next time you're downtown!
Call to Action (The most important part): Drop a "Welcome Home" in the comments for Rip! 👇

Ever wonder what our stars do when they aren’t pulling carriages through the North Loop? They head home to the farm for some well-deserved peace and quiet!

In this clip, you can see the crew enjoying their afternoon "hay break." From the grey speckled coat of Spike to Dolly with her signature white forehead star, and Chip, who many of you recognize from his downtown shifts—every one of these horses is a valued member of our family.

We’ve shared over 600 updates with you all so far, and we love being able to show you the "behind-the-scenes" life of the horses that make our carriage rides so magical. Whether they are in the city or in the pasture, they’re always the center of our world.

Which of our horses is your favorite to see downtown? Let us know in the comments! 👇

Nothing beats a crisp winter morning at the barn... even if I am just a human obstacle on the way to breakfast. 🐴✨

On a scale of 1-10, how offended should I be that I lost to a bale of hay? 🌾

Meet the unofficial mascots of The Hitching Company! While our horses are out in the city, these ladies are holding down the fort back at the farm.
They just got a fresh delivery of hay and, as you can see, they’re living their absolute best lives. It’s not all carriages and cobblestones around here—sometimes it’s just goat cuddles and snacks! 🌾🐐

Should we share more of our farm friends? Let us know in the comments! 👇
