The property & Facilities
Always August Farm sits on 23.6 acres on Habberton Rd, only 7 miles from downtown Fayetteville and the U of A.
Amenities include an 80' X 180' covered arena with lights, 160' X 70' outdoor sand ring, a four-acre field with jumps, large & small grass turnout paddocks, run-in shelters, three separate barns with thirteen stalls total, wash areas, & heated/cooled tack room. Owners, Christy and Evan Niehues, live on site.
We understand the importance of good footing and the space needed to keep horses in top-form and well conditioned for English performance disciplines! Boarders or haul-ins can enjoy the multiple arenas, grass jump field, and cross country course year round. We maintain a large field/track for conditioning sets.
We often have horses available for sale or for on-site lease. Learn more about our horses here.
