Quietly considered.
Always in the horse's
interest.
A small team. A serious craft.
Green Farm Equine was founded by Patrick & Shelley Cliffe after twenty years inside the equine industry — racing yards, stud farms, eventing and showjumping strings.
The decision to build GFE came from a frustration she'd lived herself: standard livery rarely meets the needs of a horse in genuine recovery. Time, attention and the right facilities matter — and they cannot be improvised.
Today, Green Farm offers two services: specialist rehabilitation and professional transport. The same standard runs through both.
A timeline of how we got here.

Personal rehabilitation case
A complex post-surgery rehab on her own gelding sparks the GFE concept.
