Prancer’s Farm Equestrian Ranch
Prancer’s Equestrian Ranch, located at 308 Chambersburg Rd 93015
In 2019, our family acquired the Fillmore Equestrian Center from the City of Fillmore. Originally established in 1972 as a horse boarding facility, the property has undergone extensive improvements under our care. In 2026, it officially became Prancer’s Equestrian Ranch, now fully operating in the City of Fillmore.
The ranch hosts horseback trail riding, western-themed birthday parties, petting zoo experiences, equestrian activities, and community programs. It is proudly home to the roping club, Sespe 4-H, Bardsdale 4-H, pig breeding projects for the Ventura County Fair, and numerous equestrian and agricultural events throughout the year.
