THIS WEEK, HILARY SHARES HER JOURNEY FROM GROWING UP ON A FAMILY RANCH IN ALBERTA TO STARTING HER OWN EQUINE REHABILITATION BUSINESS. SHE TALKS ABOUT THE CHALLENGES AND REWARDS OF WORKING IN AGRICULTURE, HER PASSION FOR HORSES, AND THE ROLE FAMILY DYNAMICS PLAY IN RUNNING A BUSINESS. 

Hilary Blanchette is the owner and operator of Holsom Equine and a third-generation rancher. Raised on her family’s ranch as the youngest of three children, she quickly learned the dedication, resilience, and work ethic required to sustain an agricultural business. With two older brothers ahead of her, the likelihood of taking over the family ranch was slim.

Undeterred, Hilary combined her passion for agriculture with a strong business vision, developing a plan to establish her own equine rehabilitation and conditioning center in Southern Alberta—turning her dream into a thriving reality.
