ESTABLISHED 2006
Our Story & Values
Deeply rooted in the heart of the East Bay, Creek Hill Farms began in 2006 as a vision to create a sanctuary where the bond between horse and rider could flourish. Our 100-acre facility, characterized by its rolling golden hills and serene pastures, offers a premier setting for equestrian excellence and peaceful boarding alike.
Led by trainer Julie Harvey, our instruction philosophy is built upon the pillars of safety, foundational technique, and unwavering rider confidence. We are dedicated to providing a supportive, family-owned environment where riders from age 7 to 70 can discover the joy of horsemanship in a community that feels like home.
Meet Our Trainer
Julie Harvey
Julie Harvey's love of horses began before she could walk — she was first put in the saddle at age 3, and by 13 she was competing. What started as a lifelong passion has grown into a rewarding career spanning over two decades of training and teaching.
Julie is a versatile and accomplished equestrian with experience as both a hunter/jumper rider and three-day eventer, competing successfully on several of her own horses. She also has training through third level dressage, though her true heart lies in the hunter/jumper ring.
As a trainer with over 20 years of teaching experience, Julie works with riders of all levels — from first-time beginners to competitive advanced riders. She is deeply committed to helping each student build strong fundamentals, grow in confidence, and reach their individual goals. Her greatest reward is seeing students and horses transform together, building confidence and skill with every level they conquer.
In 2010, Julie launched a breeding program focused on top-producing hunter/jumper and dressage bloodlines. She takes great pride in bringing these horses along from the ground up, preparing them to be future winners in the ring.
