Welcome to Queen Valley Mule Ranch


It's time to change not only the way you think about your mule and donkey, but also the way you

feel about your confidence and ability to communicate with them for safety and enjoyment!

 

Steve Edwards and his wife, Susan, live on the Queen Valley Mule Ranch, in Queen Valley, Arizona where they offer clinics on understanding and training mules, donkeys, and their owners. They focus on partnership with the mule and donkey, teaching how to communicate from the ground, problem mules, shoeing, ranch work, apprentiship programs for professional mule trainers, colt starting, foundation training, driving from one to six mules, various levels of showing, pack mules, trail riding, and much more. 

Steve trains both mules and donkeys and educates humans through clinics, apprenticeships, and individualized programs.  He has also created a series of instructional videos that teach various mule care, handling, and training topics.

Steve has designed, developed and sells his own line of mule-friendly saddles and tack created with you and your mule's comfort and safety in mind.  He offers all the basic equipment used on mules for riding, packing, and driving at various levels of training.

Steve and Susan travels across the USA and Canada teaching mules, donkeys, and owners how to communicate.  You can see Steve at Expos such as Equine Affaire, Mane Event, Equifest, Western States Expo, Ride The West and Minnesota Horse Fest.

Steve has been a featured writer for numerous magazines including Western Mule, Mules and More, Rocky Mountain Rider, Trail Rider, and Bridle & Bit Newspaper.   Steve was also featured in Western Horseman in 1999.  He has also been instrumental in establishing the first Mule Training Apprenticeship Program in the newly expanded equine program at Pierce College in Woodland Hills, California and more recently in Arizona at Central Arizona College.  In 1998 Steve began a  project of training  twelve mules for a riding and driving program at the Phoenix Zoo. He also trained zoo workers to present informational programs on mules, their history and their abilities.

Queen Valley Mule Ranch is a working ranch Steve and the apprentises not only training at the ranch they also work cattle, pack freight, train in the Supersition mountains and other mountain ranges.Steve Edwards travels throughout the United States giving clinics on mule handling.  He teaches a course in mulemanship at Pierce College, part of the Los Angeles Community College System where students earn a mule trainer’s certificate.   Steve frequently appears on Rural Heritage on RFD-TV to demonstrate how to train mules and donkeys.  When he’s at home in Arizona, mule owners flock to his Queen Valley Mule Ranch to learn to communicate more effectively with their mules and donkey.

Note from Steve:  Due to the nature of mule training, we are only open to the public by appointment.
