Sound on!
Kathleen, prefers to stay behind the scenes, so I'm going to get in trouble for posting this, but I truly want you to get to know the Heart and Soul of Four Oaks Farm Products. Oh, and if you enjoy this video, be sure to read the whole Origin Story. It's unique and entertaining! The link is below, but here is a snippet first:
______
......When you care for so many injuries, of course, you have a tack room brimming with every conceivable animal health product. We have tried them all. Many work great. Unfortunately, often there is that horse that just NOTHING works. All horse owners can relate.
This is when the owner, Kathleen Busfield, goes to work. She already knows what doesn’t work on the horse, so she starts from scratch, creating and tinkering like a mad scientist. Seriously. It’s something to watch her work. She hunkers down for hundreds of hours of research. Then suddenly, stacks of boxes begin arriving containing potential ingredients. So focused is she that she barely sleeps or eats.
And then the “putting together” phase begins.
When she is in her zone, everyone at the barn knows NEVER to take anything from her fridge because while a bottle may say “Welch’s Grape Juice,” it is far more likely one of her test concoctions. [ Yep, some of them are not very tasty.] Finally, when her creation is complete and the original horse has benefited from its use, she expands her testing throughout the barn. (Not testing a few horses for a few weeks, but testing many hundreds of horses over 1-2 years. We often have to plead with Kathleen to let us begin marketing her creation. She refuses to let her baby out of her sight until she absolutely knows it is exactly how she wants it – and most importantly, when she looks somebody in the eye and tells them, "it works" – it will work.
