Essex Horse Trials

In 2017, many “Applewood Farmettes” will be helping kick-start the latest version of the famed Essex Horse Trials that were held at the USET for many years. After a nearly 20 year lapse, the event has an enthusiastic new organizing committee and has relocated to Moorland Farms. We’re planning to volunteer in support of our premier local event and the glorious tradition behind it.
