I figured I should give an update .
The farm is officially sold ... the best part is that my farm will remain being used in a like manner that I had it . Congratulations Kevin and Pam ...that your son loves raising poultry and critters like I do has made my letting go of my farm much easier ... I hope you enjoy many years there.

Since I haven't posted here in a very long time I figured I better do an update ... especially for the sake of any new people who would come to check out this page.

GREEN GABLES EQUESTRIAN AND LIVESTOCK ... AND GREEN GABLES LIVESTOCK AUCTION ARE NO LONGER IN OPERATION.

Due to the economy Green Gables Equestrian and Livestock is no longer in business and Green Gables Livestock Auctions had their last sale in April 2013 due to the place the auction was held was no longer available to hold our sales there.
Basically this page is only remaining open so that if anyone would like to see what we had as far as a business ... you can view the photos of the farm itself and the many animals I had And possibly as a contract of reference where you still could post if you currently have livestock your wishing to buy or sell or if anyone is wanting to make contact with other people who raise livestock or if you have questions regarding your livestock... please feel free to make this your page to do so. Though i basically have sold out all my livestock myself ...i still want to help promote anyone who wishes to raise or sell livestock

Hi everyone, Ok , sorry I haven't been able to get a more detailed list of what will be offered up for sale at my auction . BUT first I just want to make a quick comment or2 :) I have been getting so many emails and calls regarding my auction and Im amazed by the response ..Thank you . but to clarify a couple things ... This is a closed auction of basically ONLY my stuff ..I am selling basically EVERYTHING I own and looking to move out of the area Nov 1 . There are a few items besides mine that are included in this sale BUT it is NOT an auction where others can bring in their items to sell ..sorry . Not wanting to further discourage anyone but there will be plenty to auction without adding more to it . I do have an indoor area where if bad weather we will be able to auction much of the items from .AND Dane and Jill [who had their lunch wagon at my Stratford sales] will be here as well if you get hungry :) PLEASE NOTE ALSO: sorry NO EARLY SALES .. I just don't have time to be selling stuff ahead of time AND for those who are coming from a distance ..I don't weant them traveling only to find out something they were interested in gone because it was sold early . only exception is that if anyone is interested in pigeons ..I will sell some of them early ..I have over 300 pigeons and don't want to spend time boxing all of them for the auction . IF interested ..PLEASE CALL 715-321-2008 [please no calls before 8:30am ] BUT onl call if seriously interested ..I just don't have time for curiosity calls ..I am SO BUSY trying to get ready for this sale and not to be rude BUT I just don't have time to spare ..thanks for respecting my time . Regarding ALL poultry, pheasants, Peafowl, waterfowl, and pigeons ..I will be pre-boxing them ALL prior to the sale in breeding pairs or groups and according to how I have been breeding them to achieve what I have or in family groups [mom with babies] ALL will be sold with the cage they are in BUT WILL NOT SEPARATE ..ALL sell as boxed/caged ..basically just like at most regular livestock auctions . ONLY thing is that if after you buy and HAVE PAID FOR something you buy ..IF there is some in the box/cage that you didn't want ..IF you want to sell privately between each other ..I am ok with that ,,as long as you are NOT disrupting the sale ..basically pay for what you bought and then can remove item and go off to the side to do your private transactions . REGARDING day of auction ..I do have lots of offstreet parking ..please come in drive way and follow those directing towards parking ..This is a busy highway and parking along highway not recommended ...not to mention because Im on a curve ..you may be made to move your vehicle also . viewing day of sale starting at 8:00am . If you buy any items that you can not pick up same day is ok [exception would be smaller caged livestock] larger hoofstock or other items I am willing to make arrangements for if cant be picked up same day , BUT if you leave something to be picked up later ..livestock I will feed /water ect BUT all non-live items not picked up same day ..I WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE for ..if you leave it I will NOT be responsible if something happens ..I WILL do my best not to let anything disappear or happen ..BUT it is ultimately your responsibility if left for later pick up . ANY ANNOUNCEMENTS MADE DAY OF SALE will override anything said prior to auction . OK I think that's it for announcements :) Now I will be posting an extended list of items that will be offered ...next posting :)

Well by now you have heard the news,..IF you were at my last sale ..last Sat or by now you may have heard it from someone who was there... Last Sat was my last sale. previously I had decided to let Equity take over the sale ..with me still running it ..but because their employees are already full time employees ..if they worked them on Sat for the sale they would have to be paying all their employees time and half which finacially just would not come out.. so the sale came back to me..BUT next month all my Insurances and licenses are due and because Equity is posibly going to use the facillity [the cover-all] where we hold my auctions...for another purpose ..they also now couldnt guarentee that it would be available for me to use for the auctions ...so because of the huge expense I have for ins. and licenses ..and without guarentee that I could use facility so I could make my expenses back at least ...and for some other reasons as well ..I had to make the hard decision to stop having the sales . I have been lookin for another facility in this area ..but because of requirements needed to hold these type of auctions ..finding a proper facility isn't likely . It has been a great time and I thank ALL of you for supporting my sales for last 2 and half years . I have heard and been told how disappointed many of you are at my decision but appreciate the understanding I have been getting as well ..Its been a great time ..again Thanks , Rick

Well as most of you should know by now ...I am no longer the one sponsoring the auctions ..I have turned it over to Equity ..BUT I will still be the one basically in charge of the sales ..I will still be the one you contact regarding the sales and the one you can call to consign livestock or if you have any questions [ just please remember not ot call before 8:30am...Thanks] I will be meeting this week with Equity to discuss all the details regarding the sale and if there is anything they are wanting to change ..I was told when I contacted Equtiy that they would only continue with the sales IF I continued to work with them and run the sales for them and that they didnt forsee any major changes that they would want to do . Once I have talked to them this week I will let you all know if there will be any changes . Equity did tell me last week that they do still plan on the sale for April 27 . Now the only thing that may change that at this pooint is if this crazy winter weather has still not let go and we end up with a snow or ice storm ...for those of you who believe in prayer ...join me and send some up ...not just so we can have the sale but that we can finally have spring :) haha Watch for updates here ..Thanks

04/04/2013

Ok ..confession time. WE GOOFED and I need to ask a favor of anyone who purchased an item during the presale with more then 1 item in the cage . My mom in the office misunderstood or I didnt explain it correctly ?? not sure BUT if you purchased an item or items during the presale and if there was more then 1 item in it ..you were only charged for the one item and you still owe for the remaining balance of items in the cage . It would be really appreciated if you could send me the balance still due ...dont worry about tax and if you want to deduct the cost of the stamp ..I have no problem with that ..but if you could at least pay for the balance of items in cages with more then 1 in ..it would really be appreciated. SELLERS : I did pay you according to what you consigned so you dont need to be concerned if your getting what you sold ..but that is also why if you as a buyer from the presale ONLY [this does NOT apply to any items from the auction] but I had to already cover the items from my own pocket ..so PLEASE help me out and help my mom stop feeling so bad that she cost us so much money by the mistake ...she's blaming herself even though I'm not . You can send the balance due to Green Gables, 1068 Hwy B, Mosinee, WI 54455 Thank you ..IF any question you also can call 715-321-2008

04/04/2013

Well ALL the checks are in the mail. Half went out Tuesday and the rest today so everyone should have them in the next few days. Again THANK YOU to all the buyers and sellers ..Well as most of you probably heard on Sat or read here on my previous posting after the sale ..this was My last sale as the one sponsoring it ..I have turned over the reigns to Equity..I WILL STILL BE YOUR GO TO GUY , and will still be the one you contact regarding anything concerning the sale and I will still be at the sales ..so you aren't getting rid of me . haha anyway ..again thank you all for comingto the sale but I can honestly say that I am so glad that this was my last time having to balance the sale afterwards .
See you April 27
