Discover Silver Wind Trail Rides

Gregory and Blake are the proud owners of BGP Ranch & Aviaries and co-owners of The Patch Family Farm. Together, they bring their love of animals and the outdoors to life through exciting horseback riding adventures, including Silver Wind Trail Rides, where guests of all ages can enjoy the beauty of the trails.

When he’s not in the sky flying for American Airlines, Gregory can often be found enjoying a relaxing ride on the ranch. Blake keeps things running smoothly across all three properties, and together, they’re the heart and soul behind every experience. You’ll see these two often—whether at the ranch, the patch, or out on the trail!

Gregory is a proud co-owner of BGP Ranch and Aviaries and The Patch Family Farm, where he works alongside his partner Blake to build and grow their shared vision. When he’s not helping run the farms, Gregory can often be found traveling across the country in his career with American Airlines. Back home, he enjoys spending time on the trails—most often riding his horse, Toby.

Many of you who’ve ridden with us before already know Payslin — one of our awesome junior trail wranglers here at Silver Wind Trail Rides!

Payslin has been part of the Silver Wind crew for quite some time now, and she’s always right where the action is… usually helping keep things running smooth alongside Ella, our fearless trail boss. If something’s getting done out on the trail, there’s a good chance Payslin had a hand in it 💪🐴

And if you can’t tell already… this girl likes her horses BIG 😂

Here she is pictured with Jack Sparrow, one of our big, beautiful blue roan Percherons — and clearly a perfect match!

Ella joins us from Stoneridge Acres Stables just up the road, where she’s spent years training and teaching riding lessons. Her passion for horses and positive, upbeat attitude make her a wonderful addition to our Silver Wind Stables team. You’ll most likely spot her riding her favorite POA (Pony of the Americas) — she’s always in her element when she’s in the saddle!

You will see Ella most weekends as she is our Trail Boss! The fun thing about Ella is whatever horse she is currently riding is usually one of her favorites.
