Attention Boarders:
Due to a local Bucks County Farm EHV-1 outbreak, Mile View Farm will have a mandatory self-imposed quarantine! No Farriers, outside Trainers, or trailering out. Vets for emergencies only. This does not impact Boarders ability to ride & visit their horses at MVF. Thank you for your cooperation! This is effective immediately until further notice.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the Farm that has been impacted by this horrible virus.
