Gentle Giants Horse Rescue at Manor Hill

Gentle Giants Draft Horse Rescue is returning to Manor Hill on Saturday April 18th for the Spring Edition of our Howard County Farm + Farm Collaboration Day! This one-of-a-kind event will feature: Gentle Giants Draft Horse Rescue on site from 12-4pm with friendly horses for petting & pictures. Gentle Giants Draft Horse Rescue is a 501c(3) Equine Welfare Organization, located in Mount Airy, committed to saving draft and draft cross horses from slaughter, abuse, and neglect. Learn about and contribute to their mission. More info coming soon on the ambassador horses that will be visiting that day! The Farm & Taproom will have 13 farm-brewed beers (+ our hard seltzer) on draught and multiple options in cans available to go. All seating on the Farm is first come, first served. We have indoor seating, a large covered tent, and plenty of outdoor space to spread out. There are several picnic tables in our field, but we also encourage you to bring your own chairs or even a portable (10×10) pop-up tent for shade and find your new favorite spot with friends. (if you bring a tent, don’t forget the weights/stakes). Our Farm Stand (conveniently located behind the bar) is constantly evolving and is sure to have some locally produced items for sale, including staples like Manor Hill Farm Pickles, Relish, Jellies and more. Manor Hill Pizza Trolley will be open with brick-oven Neapolitan pizzas, salads, snacks, novelty ice creams, and more! (please note Trolley may close 1 hour before farm closes.)

Our award-winning beers may be our most well-known agricultural product, but our 54-acre working farm has so much more to offer. In fact, the majority of our land is used for agriculture… so you can’t miss it no matter where you are on the farm! As you enter the farm, on the right side of the driveway, you will see 14 acres of non-GMO corn. Every single beer brewed at Manor Hill uses this…
