Barn and boarding advice
I am not sure if this is the best place to post, but hopefully someone can point me in the right direction. I would really appreciate any advice regarding my situation. I am living in the midwest, and eventually will be inheriting a barn. It has 24 stalls, but only 6 horses right now. It is in good shape, but not mAking any money right now. My family used to show horses, so it used to be full and busy. I would love to see it busy again, but I have no idea where to even start. I was not personally raised around horses, so I didn't grow up with them, but I am eager to learn. I guess I just don't even know if I should try? Is it possible to learn about horses of you didn't grow up around it? I have started trying to research and it is really overwhelming. I have no idea where to start or what getting the barn really going would entail. Can anyone recommend resources for me? I have found a lot of information about the costs of a horse but not a barn specifically. There is an outdoor arena, pasture, a trail and pond. We have someone we get hay from for the current horses, we have someone who takes care of them and looks after the barn, but he is only getting enough money from the owners of the 6 to keep things afloat, so no income. I know that eventually i am inheriting this, I would love to have a head start on it, I just feel in over my head at the moment. Sorry this is so jumbled, and as I said if this is not a good place to look for help i can delete this. I am also trying to be vague enough to stay anonymous, please let me know if you need more information.
