The 3 Black Orchid Drum stallions are back together for the winter. These boys love playing and are happy to have the winter off from their daddy duties. The buckskin is Wild Rose Big Mack "Popcorn", the black is Holley West's Behold The Man "Gatsby" and the Grullo is Wanderlust's Drury. All 3 of these young men are expecting foals in the Spring of 2025.

...and amongst the men lay the horses, eight million involuntary souls...Stunning and poignant sculpture by Tavernor Art

"I'm so very proud of this sculpture and l'll never shy away from placing it outside of the gallery, at this time of the year, while I still have the strength to do so. I feel incredibly moved by the reaction it always gets each year from passers by in the street to people coming into the gallery to shake my hand and tell me stories of how it effects them.
It often brings people to tears when they see what it represents. Thank you to all those who feel as I do about the sacrifice not just of the men but also the animals who have no voice of there own."

Look who's back with a new partner!!! Beartooth Princess Prada is back from maternity leave and my husband is now taking his turn at driving. Bill and Prada were amazing....and of course they had our number one fantastic navigator Melissa to keep them both in line. I am so proud of this team!!! Now Draxx and I have to practice so they don't beat us!!

This one hurts 😢. Goodbyes are never easy…especially the ones that you thought would be here forever. Trella is the first Drum horse born on our farm. She has always been my favourite…but with downsizing comes hard decisions. She is going to a home with 3 beautiful children that will love her and spoil her. It makes it a little easier knowing she will get the attention she deserves. ♥️♥️♥️
Congratulations to her new family.

My heart is full ♥️! Draxx gives me so much effort and tries to do exactly what Im asking…even when Im not always communicating my best. Melissa keeps me focussed and on track with such warmth and kindness…and Draxx loves her to bits! We have come so far…especially with the guidance from our driving community! Thank you to everyone. Draxx had 2 clear runs (first time ever) and only 1 penalty in the third. This placed us 3rd out of 10 teams!!! Eeek! There was amazing competitors who set the bar high and I adore each and every one of them! Thank you Kees & Annie Muilwijk for hosting and being so supportive of us all. Many thanks to my groom Melissa, my husband for always pushing me, my sister Darlene Vavrek Lasiuta for being my biggest cheerleader, Loekie Van Dobben Hoekstra for yhe training and tips to guide our improvement and my friend Candace and family for popping in to watch! Congratulations to all of the competitors!

So proud of Team Prada!! Prada, Bill and Melissa rocked the course and came in 4th out of 10!! Wahooooo! Great job!!

Thank you Kees for the help with water crossing. Draxx is getting braver and I had a blast!!

A few of the ladies coming in for a drink ♥️.

Trella and her 2024 colt Atlas grooming each other. ♥️ So much love to share! ♥️

Haha! Flash is having a good sleep! Make sure you have the sound on 💤

Life on the farm hasn’t been easy the past few weeks but these two gems make things worth it. Neither foal have been announced yet but both super special. Waiting for color results on one before the official introductions!! ♥️

Black Orchid Maizlee, F2 Drum filly, is the sweetest. She always wants to check in with her humans ♥️.

Here is an amazing 2 for 1 opportunity and you can pick the sire! ! 😃 Black Orchid Pearl is an F1 Drum mare registered with the International Drum Horse Association D0548M. Sire: North Fork Peso Dam: Swiss Shire Maggie DOB: May 18, 2016 Color: Black Tobiano (EE, TO/n) Height: 15’3 PSSM1/FIS: negative Located: Rocky Mountain House, AB Pearl is green broke to ride and needs a confident, quiet rider. She is a great mother who has never needed help foaling. She is easy to catch, leads, loads, ties and stands for the trimmer. We are only making her available because we need to downsize. Hard decisions have to made. ♥️

When your husband says it’s ok to get another dog….😀🥳!! Loki is such a sweet playful soul!! ♥️

We had a wonderful update about Black Orchid Firewalker “Sparks”. Thank you Claire Hills-Silva for the adorable video and for giving Sparks such an amazing home! ♥️ He sure is something special!!

Loki is growing like a weed and is equally passionate about the new bale as Bo is about the skid steer. 🤣
