This is the view that brings me back to a peaceful place, and helps all the stress of the day fade away. It’s also my “why”. Why I do what I do, breeding horses as some idea of an insane hobby. Horses are a luxury, no doubt but for those fortunate enough – this is what makes it all worth it.
It’s a family affair, my kids are not horse-crazy but they do wrangle foals, hold mares and slug around feed with me. My husband bears the most misery, delivering hay with antique not-fit-for-purpose equipment in all kinds of weather. I am so grateful for their support and understanding – so my passion for these creatures endures.
An avid lover of horses and the outdoors, I've been blessed and cursed with an addiction to horses. From a very young age, my passion for all-things-equine has been a key driver in my life. I'm fortunate that I have been able to build a professional career around my love for animals. I find peace in the forest, exploring nature, in harmony with my horse. I am a horsewoman first, and an equestrian second. I love to ride, but have no real desire to compete. A hack through a new forest, I love the sense of exploration, communication and ability to enjoy horses and nature together. It's bliss! I enjoy just the everyday presence and synergy with my horses, be that in the saddle or just together around the farm.
