Over the Fence

It seems that even our cozy little farm is affected by everything going on in the outside world (hard as that is to believe!) Over the past few months, we have lost several members of our barn family due to economic reasons. Since horseback riding is considered a luxury, it's often one of the first things to be cut out of a budget when money gets tight. We are definately feeling the pinch at the farm, overtly due to the loss of income, but primarily in losing good friends and even better horseman. The Mounting Block only exists because of the hardworking individuals who believe in it. The support these people have provided, our students, parents, boarders, and volunteers, have kept us going when things seemed the bleakest. So for those who have needed to cut back, to reestablish priorities during these tough times, you are not forgotten. Whether it be a few weeks or a few years, we hope in time you will return. Until then, know that we will always be grateful for the effort you put in to keeping our beloved farm going and making it possible for us to share our love for horses with others. We are forever in your debt.
