About H Barber and Sons
H. Barber & Sons, Inc. is a family owned and operated corporation, principally located in Naugatuck, Connecticut, USA.Founder Harold S. Barber first explored the prospects of building machines that clean beaches in the early 1960's. Mr. Barber understood the growing need for this type of equipment and designed the first Barber raking prototype to clean sand beaches.
As H. Barber & Sons, Inc. continued to grow, expansion into other areas of debris collection was a logical progression— and soon they discovered that their TURF RAKE was the perfect solution to creating a velvet sand surface— free of rocks and debris— for horse riders to enjoy and perform on. Horse Riders from across America can enjoy the years of soft, smooth sand without the real concern and hazard that rocks and debris in your arena can cause.

Smooth Sand— It’s Not Just “Convenience”- It’s What Your Horse is Riding On!
We’ve all experienced the irritation, disappointment and frustration of entering an arena, only to find it is littered with rocks, debris, roots and other hazards to your horse’s hooves and well being. If you are running a boarding or training stable, you will find that clients will leave to look for a better solution for your horse. But, even if the property is yours, you know that a misstep can mean anything from a stone bruise to a serious fall or injury.

The TURF RAKE by H Barber & Sons, Offers a Smooth Solution To A Rocky Problem!
Go from the arena no one wants to use— to the arena that is everyone’s favorite! The TURF RAKE Grooms, Rakes and, most importantly REMOVES all DEBRI that can hinder your horse’s performance and your enjoyment of your arena. Your clients, boarders or family will love what the TURF RAKE can do for your arenas.

What Does The TURF RAKE Actually Do?
* Removes stone, rock, sod, roots, sticks and similar debris from soil
* Grades rough or scarified soil
* Aerates the soil- leaving a gently harrowed area that is inviting and comfortable to ride on
* Tines penetrate the soil digging down to remove buried stones ensuring thick top layer of stone free soil

Why Use TURF RAKE At YOUR Arena?
* Who Wants To Spend Hours Picking and Digging out Rocks? NO ONE! The TURF RAKE stone picker can quickly do the work that previously took many men and many hours of hand raking.

* Simplify Mechanical Methods: The TURF RAKE stone picker in ONE PASS removes stone, elevates the debris to a hopper at the rear, levels uneven areas and leaves the surface ready for planting all in one pass.

* Make Riding Fun For Yourself and Clients! If you are running a boarding stable, or training barn, you won’t want to see your clients moving somewhere else. Your smooth arenas can mean money in your pocket as clients seek out your stables for an enhanced riding experience. If you own the property yourself, you will really enjoy being able to ride for hours on a smooth, inviting surface— and your horse will welcome it too!

* Help Ensure the Safety and Well Being Of Your Horses! Few things are more upsetting to a horse owner than hoof or leg injuries and layups. Having a smooth, debris-free arena is going to make a world of difference in savings to help prevent hoof and leg injuries
