15th annual Draft Horse Plow Day postponed to MOTHERSDAY :-)

Newbury Daily News

Spencer-Peirce-Little Farm in Newbury, MA  rolls out its 15th annual Draft Horse Plow Day Saturday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on the fields of the historic Little’s Lane property.

The Plow Match continues a long tradition of work horses on the farm used to prepare the soil for spring planting. In the 1880s, brothers Edward Francis Little and Daniel Noyes Little imported draft horses by rail from Iowa to Newburyport. Trained at the Spencer-Peirce-Little Farm, the horses were sold to other farms and coast guard stations.

Sustainabilty has many Faces!

The Green Equestrians would like to extend best wishes and show their gratitude for all you do!

“Green Horsemanship” ???

I came across this new phrase a couple of days ago and it triggered my brain cells … “Green Horsemanship”, what is it supposed to stand for? What would it actually look like in our daily routines? Is it a valid expression?

Floridians, guard your horses!

I came across an article today and I would like to share this with the equestrian community.

"Legends of the West"

The proud american history - not to say world history - was and in a way still is based on "horsepower". How come we are not able to honor this fact?

Equestrians, don't look away !!!

Start POINTING FINGERS !!!

During my daily visits with the equestrian communities worldwide I came across this project, which from my point of view is worth looking into.
One starts thinking about the roots to this "evil" and somehow I come to the conclusion, that regulatory efforts in our communities by members of the community would work much better than governmental interventions....
We as equestrians must take a stand and educate others in order to create a more responsible approach towards our forlegged friends. This project here could be one way to do so.
