Plight of the poop picker

What a lovely February we’ve had down here in Southern British Columbia. My garlic and crocuses are up (which I quickly covered again because it’s too early), the roads are clear enough for walking or riding on again and the snow is melting out of the paddocks, and you know what that means. It’s poop season!!!

That’s right I don’t think I know a horse person out there who hasn’t felt the urge to go hard and get all the winters manure cleaned up as soon as the ground starts to thaw.  Some of us are lucky enough to be able to manage manure clean up all winter.  Unfortunately that's not the case for most of us including myself and if you're anything like me, you want it done as soon as the ground is thawed enough to work with.

Before you start spending day after day, hour after hour, raking, scooping, and running around with your wheelbarrow like a mad person, there are a few things I would like you to consider, that can make or break the riding season for both you and your horse.
