Welcome!

Hi! I’m Lisa. I started The Budget Equestrian to share what I’ve learned about owning and caring for horses. If there is a budget way to do something with horses – I’ve tried it!
I’ve spent my whole life around horses, and I have recently adopted a Quarter Horse gelding named Timon and a little pony named Pumbaa. You can learn more here. Thank you for stopping by, and happy horsekeeping!
