Helping by Adoption
Standardbreds have long been over looked as a suitable riding horse and pleasure/competive driving horse after their harness racing careers. The breed is gaining popularity over the last few decades having a hardy body and sensible mind. Many hours of handling and driving have been put into most, if not all horses coming into the program while training down at the track.
Horses are donated to our program by their racing connections to ensure responsible placement into a home that will continue their transition from racing to riding or driving. As a volunteer run organization, we put as many rides into these horses before adoption as we can- however almost all will need further education in their new discipline.
Consider a Standardbred today!
Helping by Support
By helping to fund this program, retired racehorses in BC will have a place to go after they can no longer race.
Please consider making a donation to the work we do in order for us to help more horses.

Bottle Drive
We have opened up a designated bottle drive account so that you can drop off any returnable bottles (cans, milk cartons, plastic bottles, glass bottles, etc.) and donate the proceeds of those returnables to Greener Pastures. As a non-profit charity organization, we rely on donations to help care for the horses in our program.
- Drop off your returnables at any Return-It Express location in British Columbia.
- Make sure your returnables are in a clear / transparent bag and are empty.
- Print a label at the Kiosk with our phone number: 604-613-2279 and stick it to your bag!
