Working with Donkey Basics
Working with Donkey Basics
Experienced teamsters share the unique pleasure of donkey handling, hitching, and driving skills. Participants begin by learning how donkeys differ from draft horses and the distinctive characteristics that make them steadfast farming workers. Skills will be taught and honed with simple ground driving while progressing to field preparation and other farming tasks with a team. Topics include training a young team, hoof care, health, and nutrition. Experience the pleasure of a working donkey team at Tillers International’s beautiful campus, and start building your skills.
