The community is very important to us at Capalaba Produce! We had the honour of attending the Somerville house show jumping event on March 4th held at Moggill Pony Club.

The early morning arrivals rolled in with their clean floats, excited horses and drowsy eyes for the Somerville interschool showjumping Qualifier event.Hopes ran high through the community and spirits were strong as the I chatted with the wonderful girls from Somerville who were hoping to achieve their qualifiers for state championships!

The team from Somerville, riders and parents welcomed us in and supported the awesome scientists from Complete Equine Nutrition and Capalaba + Brookfield Produce thanking us for helping them achieve their event.

The day rolled along with some great riding abilities being displayed and even though there were ups downs and a few falls, the riders and teams showed their true effort and devotion to their trustworthy partners ????

Bryan and Peter from Complete Equine Nutrition shared their knowledge and the power of science and horse nutrition not only to the riders but parents and event organisers even earning the approval from a few of our Equine friends at the end of the day.

A special shout out goes to the Beaudesert school riding team who took out ‘Overall team champions’ and all qualified for nationals. Congratulations guys! It was a fantastic day and Capalaba Produce was proud to be a part of such a great event 🙂
