Mādahòkì Farm opened its doors in October 2021. The farm draws both international visitors and, increasingly, domestic ones, who are coming in greater numbers to see the horses.

Founder & CEO Trina Simard shares what to expect at Madahoki Summer on Ottawa in the Know.

Mādahòkì Farm is introducing summer camps this year. Founder & CEO Trina Simard tells us what campers can expect.

At Madahoki Farm, wellness is about connection—to land, to ancestors, to culture and to animals who have lived here since time immemorial. Among the farm’s goats, sheep, pigs and chickens live the Ojibwe Spirit Horses, the last of their kind in Canada. These small, resilient ponies once roamed freely across Turtle Island, living in harmony with the people of the land.

From hosting Ojibwe Spirit Horses to sitting on tourism boards, Trina Mather-Simard has more than 20 years of experience as an Indigenous tourism entrepreneur. She has contributed to the local and national industry as part of her mission to “preserve, promote and pass on Indigenous cultures.”

Ottawa is located on the traditional, unceded territory of the Anishinaabe Algonquin Nation, and today, thousands of Indigenous people call the city home. Visitors to Ottawa can discover the land’s history and the enduring traditions and stories of Indigenous Peoples. Viewing Canada’s capital from an Indigenous perspective highlights a lasting connection to the land.

The Indigenous-owned and operated tourism destination Mādahòkì Farm is set to launch a number of new experiences for visitors to Ottawa this September.

Located southwest of the Canadian capital’s downtown, Mādahòkì Farm is known for its herd of rare and endangered Ojibwe Spirit Horses.
