Diamond D’s Summer Horse Camp is back

Diamond D Ranch is a fifth-generation, family-owned working horse and cattle ranch located in Jacksonville, Florida. Established in 1950, the ranch has grown into a beloved destination for families, schools, and visitors from all over. In addition to raising quality beef cattle and offering scenic horseback trail rides, the ranch is home to a thriving agritourism program that provides hands-on educational experiences for students of all ages.

One of the ranch’s most treasured traditions is its Summer Horse Camp, now entering its 33rd year. Campers from across the country travel to Diamond D Ranch each summer to spend a full week immersed in ranch life—riding horses, learning horsemanship, and building confidence in a safe, faith-filled environment. The camp has become a rite of passage for many young horse lovers and is often described as the highlight of their summer.

From field trips and family farm days to weddings, private events, and seasonal markets, Diamond D Ranch continues to welcome guests with Southern hospitality and a passion for preserving Florida’s ranching heritage.
