The Certified Stables program facilitates the improvement of quality and safety in the stable industry in Minnesota.
The Certified Stables program was created to improve the quality and safety of the stable industry in Minnesota using established standards and continuing education. Moreover, the program acts as a resource and liaison between the horse industry and other areas of agriculture to decrease costs and increase the quality of products for stable owners.
When a stable becomes certified through the Minnesota Horse Council, they receive a sign to post at their barn, are listed on this website and in the program given to all Mn Horse Expo attendees as certified. Each stable can also advertise themselves as a Minnesota Horse Council Certified Stable.

A certified stable is concerned with the care of the horse and maintains the facility in order to meet the standards of the Certified Stable Program. The stable managers are proud of their facilities and are constantly seeking ways to improve.
When applying for certification, stables may be certified, not certified, or placed on a plan of improvement. Stables placed on a plan of improvement have the right to appeal the evaluation by contacting the Chairperson of the Certified Stable Program and scheduling a re-inspection.

Only stables in Minnesota can be certified.
