Altogether Farm

I just came across a meme regarding the boxing controversy circulating online in which the Algerian boxer is represented as some sort of satanic beast looming over a Disney princess-esque representation of the Italian boxer. SHAME ON ANYONE SPREADING THIS HORRIFYINGLY CRUEL PICTURE!! No matter what your views may be on the participation of DSD sufferers in elite sports, or your misconceptions regarding the individuals sexual status, she (YES, SHE) is a human being who can never deserve this sort of cruelty.

I am literally shaking with anger and disgust right now and will unfriend anyone who posts this. The only thing keeping me from giving them a taste of their own medicine by posting some sort of demeaning comparison about them is that I, unlike anyone who spreads this vile picture, know that it would be wrong, unchristian and FLAT OUT EVIL to do so.

I am not that person ... and you should not want to be that person either!

Time is running out if you’re looking for a legitimate large green who can shine at Pony Finals this year(or get reinstated for 2025). I wish his kid was still riding because this is one I would love to take myself!

If interested please contact Christy Burns through the ad.

Pony Finals is fast approaching and Acorn is the perfect large green to take to pony finals. He is the ultimate green pony to have at pony finals as he is super brave, unfazed by any venue and fancy enough to get a prize in all three phases. His is qualified for the large greens (he has been champio...

We had a great show in Aiken. Em and Padme really brought their A game and qualified in the smalls despite it being only their second show together and Em's first time in the division. Thank you Emily Elek for loaning us this special girl! Em also made a new friend who rides with my sister. She was also just starting the division and also qualified so they are looking forward to seeing each other in KY!

A missing shoe prevented Adi from bringing the one we planned but she did a great job getting her super green medium (only broke 6 months) some show exposure. Lucy even jumped around most of the ticketed despite never having seen anything as solid as real show jumps before. She is just about ready to go on a new kid to be finished. She has been a fun project!

Better late than never ... finally got this up. Congrats to all the girls and try not to die from the cuteness!

New arrivals at Meadowview!!

Gotta make a quick brag post about Rhiannon's Red Oak, Jen Trujillo's lovely large green who was Reserve Champion down at WEF this week in a division that wasn't huge but was very tough (there was one class where the LOWEST score was a 79😳). He has turned into such a wonderful pony and I have to give special thanks to Christy Burns and my sister Robin and all the wonderful crew at Emerald Hill who got him there.

Unfortunately, now that Adi is taking a break from the horses, he is sadly for sale.

I would like to announce that I am adding Meadowview Farm in Roswell, GA as a boarding and training location for my operation. Not only is this a gorgeous farm boasting a huge, lighted all weather ring and manicured grounds, but the farm is owned and run by a vet so your horses are sure to get the highest standard of care. We will have a few openings available as of 2/15 with more opening up as Spring arrives and our newly renovated pastures are established.

Long but successful weekend at Chatt Hills despite both rain and unseasonable cold. Ombline Thibault had a successful debut in the high Ch/Ad jumpers with Bashful Star, getting some good ribbons and never worse than one rail. Not bad for a team that has had to go from .85 to 1.10 in just FOUR!!! shows. Adi Trujillo made her first rated jumper show a wild success, ending up reserve champion in the .85 on Bragging Rights, the best boy ever! She also got top ribbons on Isle Royale in a big Low Children's Hunter division. Can't wait for Tryon in April and hopefully better weather!

Fun and successful weekend with Cheryl & Co. at Poplar Place to kick off the summer. Everyone was great. Madi Purcell seemed like she'd never been away at school, coming in 3rd in a very competitive derby with the Baconator despite the fact it was their first show since November! Adi Trujillo was champion on Teddy and is now qualified for Pony Finals. YAY! Olivia Nilson and Tico won the Ch/Ad Hunter classic. Turbo tackled his first rated show with Ombline Thibault and came home with a good ribbon in his jumper classic - He's like the little engine that could! Lauryn Kleiss had great ribbons on Bugatti at her first show back from college and once they both get back in shape they should have an awesome summer. And Jackie Gray and Rocco got a ton of great experience and even handled the bigger jumps in the main hunter ring. Not bad for an ex-dressage rider and horse, both of whom have been jumping for not much more than 6 months. can't wait for Aiken in June. 🦄❤️

Wet and rainy Sunday at Chatt Hills but Adi and Willie persevered to end up champion in the schooling ponies and reserve in the regular division. Pony Finals here we come! 🦄🎉

Olivia Nilson got great ribbons on Friday and Saturday 🥈🥉 but we decided not to risk the footing today. Same for Adi's other pony Fiesta Abrazzo who was wonderful in the children's on Saturday 🥇🥉 and is headed for the green division next horse show.

Great day at local finals. Olivia Nilson and Ombline Tibault both qualified for their derbies and Adi Trujillo was champion in the mediums which was a great ending for her very first show with Just Whistle. Good luck to Olivia and Ombline tomorrow!

Two horses available for very affordable in-barn leases. PM for more information.

1) Hello Rembrandt - 13 year old Dutch WB. Shown to 1.35 in Europe and 1.15 in the US with his junior owner who has since moved on to other mounts. He is now looking to teach someone the ropes in the .85-.95 jumpers. Strong but straightforward, he would be the perfect horse to let someone get their feet wet in the jumper ring on a budget. Available on a care and expense lease in-barn only (he is too well loved for the owners to part with him). Potential leasees must be willing to take regular lessons and must also allow the current owner to ride him occasionally as needed. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsfJV2jqZ5Tx9Lejp0a6Jyn9yM26CyeP8

2) Chase - 5 year old, approximately 15.3 TB. Never raced. Green but very sweet and quiet. Currently flatting and doing limited jumping with his novice owner and jumping small courses and starting to offer changes with another advanced/intermediate level junior. His owner has a very tight schedule and is looking for an intermediate level or better rider to half lease him. The best part of this deal is Chase is available on the weekends! Very affordable and availble on a month to month basis. A super fun and very comfy horse for someone looking to ride on the weekends. Preference given to applicants who are also interested in lessons.

Crosby showing off at Incentive Finals. He has been such a fun horse to bring along. Congratulations and good luck to his new owners and rider Jen Alfano. Thanks to Daniel Geitner for all your help!

Cash is a lovely, straightforward guy currently doing the 3' greens and schooling higher at home. Only lightly shown due to owner's other commitments but super easy to find the jumps and will walk in cold and jump around without peeking. Good in the ring and out and only gets better the more you do. Simple to ride and loveable in the barn - what more could you want. Please PM only for more info and videos. Comments WILL NOT be answered as they are too hard to track over multiple posts.

A little late but I wanted to congratulate everyone on a great Aiken show. Cash and Croby were great in the greens, even if Crosby was a bit prone to being an overachiever and then running out of steam but it was his first time out in a long while and first time in the 3' ... and he won the Incentive class.Told him he needed to watch steady Eddie Cash. 🙂 Madi had a great show, champion in the low jr/am and winning the classic with Reese and finishing up qualifying for Hamel with Bacon. Ombline worked it out with Fable and showed her good riding despite a tough start in the jumper field. Love me some grit! Olivia did her first real show with Tico collecting some good ribbons and Adi did her first children's pony division with great success as well.

I'm not a big one for FB bragging but Madi and Bacon's performance in the derby last night definitely deserves it. Fourth out of twenty with an 85 in the handy over a very difficult course. Congrats girl!
