Freedom Reigns Ranch in Thompson's Station received a donation of grass seed from the Spring Hill Home Depot to help restore pastures damaged by drought in 2026.

The ranch, which rescues horses and runs equine-assisted programs, posted the news Nov. 7 on its website. The store donated a few bags of Pennington grass seed.

"This year has hit hard with an exceptional drought and being able to re-establish pastures is so important for horse health," the ranch said.

The donation comes ahead of a volunteer work day scheduled for Saturday, Nov. 14, from 2 to 4 p.m. Volunteers will help with brush clearing, tack cleaning and seeding the pastures.

The ranch asked volunteers to bring pole saws and leaf blowers if they have them. All ages are welcome, and an RSVP is required.
