Silver Glen Stables

Our specialty is accommodating the overnight/short-term boarder. Her strengths are in organization, planning, and employee relations.

ABOUT US

What We Do
Since “opening the barn doors” in the summer of 2000, Silver Glen Stables has built a solid reputation as a premier full service equine boarding facility in Central California’s San Joaquin Valley, specifically within the Fresno area. Our safe, clean, and modern facility provides year-round riding opportunities for horse owners to increase their knowledge and skill level and

time to enjoy their horses. We currently specialize in accommodating the overnight traveler in need of a layover, be it a day or for several weeks. We also welcome local haul-ins who wish to take advantage of working their horses under our covered arena during inclement weather. Situated on approximately 6 acres, Silver Glen Stables is surrounded by other primarily agricultural properties, such as vineyards and orchards, which add to the quiet, secluded feel, although we are just minutes from “civilization.”

We may be small in acreage, but we have all the first class amenities of much larger boarding stables, such as a covered arena with excellent footing, spacious barns with wide aisles, indoor wash racks with hot and cold water, a lounge, and a very clean handicapped restroom. Who We Are
Silver Glen Stables is a corporation owned and operated by Craig and Linda Van Kirk, who have been residents of the Madera/Fresno area all of their lives. Both are graduates of California State University, Fresno with several degrees between them, who decided one day they were tired of working for “Corporate America” and wanted to be self-employed. Craig has been self-employed for more than thirty years and brings his special blend of agriculture and business management knowledge to Silver Glen Stables. Linda has more than forty years of business administration and supervision experience, with thirty of those years being in the public sector. She has developed, promoted, and executed many revenue generating programs and has an extensive background in the areas of event planning, public relations, and communications.
