I got my goats, all tucked in their barn for our Hurricane Milton prep! This is their first major hurricane in the new barn that Ciera and I built. Let’s just pray it holds up. 🙏🙏🙏

Thanks to one of my borders who showed me this fantastic idea on how to tag my horses for a storm. One of the big worries, when you own a farm, is losing your animals in a storm. Horses, goats, chickens are not like our house hold pets that we can put chips on. When a storm comes and they get scared and run away, how do you find them? We used to draw phone numbers on the horses with wax color crayons,  or use ankle ties with our information or tie laminated cards to their tales with hay string. However, I found this to be a much better idea.

We will braid these dog tags into their hair and also secure them with hay string. Much better solution. I also put my sister‘s phone number on the tag, so if for some reason, people cannot reach me on my cell phone (due to power outage and my phone dying or getting lost in the storm) – there’s a second contact person (out of state) that will know my horses are safe. She can then collect information on where they’re located. Hope this might help someone else during the hurricane.

OMG - our new baby kittens have arrived. Meet Potato and Dumplin. They have stolen our hearts. Potato is quite a bit smaller than Dumplin. Both are half Mancoon and have long hair. Dumplin’s hair is longer and she is a little more reserved, but both are soooo adorable.

Just found this dog this evening. He came out of the Econ Forest off Vista Cove. Anyone recognize him? He’s super sweet, appears to be young and fairly skinny. We are not able to keep him, so if anyone knows where he belongs - that would be great. We will keep him in our barn for a couple days, but I am hoping not to take him to a shelter. I would like to find him a good home. Message me if you know anything. Thanks

Please share so we can find his owner!

Ok everyone - I am down to 2 stalls available for rent as of June 1st 2024. They are going to go quickly, so don’t wait.

Spring Acres is located at 824 Vista Cove Chuluota, 32766. We are a small family owned farm and all stalls are first come first serve. All of our stalls are 12x12. Some have mats and some do not. All have fans and automatic waters with additional water bucket. Our goal is to have no more than 10 horses on the property, so we are not over crowded. The property is 5 acres and backs up to the Econ State Forest. We do have access to the Econ State Forest directly from our property for some great trail rides, but also have plenty of space on property to ride. We have a jump arena, room for dressage work and lighted round pen. Board is $600 per stall with a $600 deposit. Deposit is refunded with a 30 day notice and no damage. You provide all of your own hay, grain, supplements and shavings. We feed twice a day and scoop stalls once a day. We also turn in and out, fly spray (must provide) and fly sheet or blanket if needed (must provide). We do not take any cribbers or wood chewers, due to new fencing. We have an air-conditioned tack room and grain room. Each border is provided a trunk and cabinet for storage along with space for saddles and bridals. If you are interested in a tour, please let me know and we can set up a convenient time. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Anyone interested in scheduling a Parents Morning Out?? Let me know if you are interested and what weekend would work. We usually hold them from 9am-12pm on Saturdays, but we are flexible. We pick that time, so it is not so hot for the kids.

If you put a group of children together and can gather 4 children, the 5th child is FREE!

PM me with any questions or date availability.
