2014 was a great year for Traci and we couldn't be more proud of she and Solomon!!

If any other boarders have year-end accomplishments you would like to share on here, please let us know! We have such a talented group of boarders at Southwind Farm, we love to share all of their accomplishments!

We want to hear from our awesome boarders!!!

Good Morning Everyone!!

We do realize that it's winter time, and not a lot is going on but we would love to hear from you and what you are up to this winter!! Our blog is missing out on all of the many wonderful things our boarders do, so we need to change that. Contact Sheri today to find out how to submit your news to the blog!

Stay warm everyone,

Sending Warm Wishes to Laurie & Major!

Good Morning,

This week, we want to send a special shout out to Laurie Berger & her super pony, Major. Last week, major had to have emergency colic surgery in Leesburg. According to Laurie, Major is coming home on Tuesday if all continues to go well. He is completely off medicine and IV, and is eating everything that isn't nailed down. We can't wait to have him back home at Southwind where he will have stall rest for a month and then a schedule to get him back in work.

Sending Laurie & Major best wishes for a quick and speedy recovery!!!
