About the farm...
History
| This 50 acre piece of God's paradise was part of a 100 acre parcel owned by a neighbour who farmed this land for many years before he retired. We now view this opportunity as a renewal for the land, once fully given to crop production, where horses and people can come and enjoy the natural and restorative surroundings in a peaceful, relaxing environment. |
The Dream
| So what do you do with 50 vacant acres? Well if you want to operate a horse farm, you need two things for sure: water and pasture. The pasture part was easy. The water was created with the local conservation area and our contractor who created a two-acre lake and a smaller pond by damming a natural large cut. Around this, we have created a path for visitors to stroll and view the transient wildlife of cormorants, great blue herons, little green herons, ducks, geese, bald eagles, deer and coyotes. A significant variety of songbirds and fish also have made this lake their home. |
The Inhabitants
| Of course there are the horses, which come and go, except for our home herd of registered quarter horses who you will meet when you visit. And we have a border collie, Pepper, with one blue eye; several cats, plus the occasional visitor. There are lots of deer, foxes, and our namesake, the elusive but vocal Coyote, who is often heard but rarely seen. You will usually find Patricia (PK), and there has been the occasional sighting of her husband, Chuck, working around the farm. |
| What's a horse farm without buildings, stalls and an indoor riding arena... not a horse farm, but we have that and more to come... |
