ColdSpring Mares is dedicated to giving vulnerable foals a second chance at life. Foals may be orphaned or rejected due to birth complications, illness, or loss of the mare, leaving them at serious risk without proper nourishment and care. Our mission is to is to ethically pair nurse mares with rejected or orphaned foals, promoting healthy development through compassionate care.

Through ethical, carefully monitored pairings, we prioritize the physical and emotional well-being of both the mare and the foal. Humane practices, respect, and commitment to equine welfare guide our work.

For years, ColdSpring Mares have sustained and led the equine industry—nurturing over 450 foals. When farms choose us, they are choosing the highest standard of care, the most responsible model in the industry, and service that reflects true partnership.

As a nonprofit, we work hard to ensure exceptional daily care, supportive client services, quiet and easy transitions for our mares and foals, and longevity within the industry so that we can continue to serve this section of the equine industry as long as possible.

We cannot do this alone. We rely deeply on our community to stand beside us and ensure these mares receive the care, respect, and love they have earned a thousand times over. We thank you for considering us during the Give4Marion campaign.
