Change Begins With Us

To empower and inspire equestrians to join us in our mission of reducing the environmental impact of horse sports

Stephanie Riggio Bulger
FOUNDER
Green Is the New Blue was founded by Stephanie Riggio Bulger. A lifelong New Yorker, Stephanie's passion for horses began as a kid in Central Park, and has taken her to the top echelon of the hunter world. She has owned and competed on such notable horses as Indian Summer, Fiddler's Bridge and many more. Stephanie is also a proud mom of her son Leo who is the inspiration behind Green Is the New Blue. Stephanie has seen the impact we have on our planet and wants to leave it in a better place for her son.
Combining Stephanie's love of horses with her passion to make the world a better place has created a movement within the equine industry to do our part and save the planet for our children.
