Tucked away on 70 serene acres in Farmersville, Gold Star Horse Rescue and Sanctuary has been a refuge for horses in need since its establishment in April 2014.

Founded by Mollie Hines, the sanctuary currently cares for 55 horses, 12 boarder horses, four miniature horses, two ponies, two llamas, chickens, barn cats, and even a rescue dog.

Over the years, Gold Star has evolved from housing a handful of owned horses to becoming a sanctuary for older horses and those with medical issues.
