Question of the day: What's the best saying in the horse business?

Saturday with Haile Farmers Market (Gainesville, FL) was a win.

I moved down to Ocala last week and couldn’t have found a better spot to connect with community. Gainsville is a short trip up 75 and on the way up I wasn’t sure what to expect.

As I made the last turn into the Historic Haile Homestead it was unreal. The street is lined with live oak and you could hear the music making its way down the narrow road.

Parking was easy and the vendor were top notch.

Special thanks to Pam the market manager and Kevin the president of the board for making me feel right at home.

This one will be on rotation for me.

Your weekend adventure has arrived.

Western Maryland has so much to explore, and one of the best ways to see it all is with a little day trip: a hiking adventure followed by a stop at one of Maryland’s small, family run creameries for ice cream.

Happy Cow Creamery is more than just a place to grab a scoop. It’s a working dairy farm where you can meet the cows, chickens, goats, and more up close.

Meet the Savages: Chip, Isha, and their two boys, proudly running Grand View Acres Farm.

This weekend’s pairing: Soldiers Delight Natural Environmental Area, Choate Mine and Red Run Trail, a 2-mile easy loop, followed by farm fresh soft serve, hand-dipped hard serve, and a whole lot of family fun.

One of 13 stops on Maryland’s Best Ice Cream Trail.

what are you doing on saturday , August 22nd at 930AM?

kelly, paige, and i have been putting together something that i think is going to be really special.

we’ll kick things off with a 90 minute guided breathwork session led by kelly. if you’ve never tried breathwork before, don’t overthink it. just show up. most people leave feeling calmer, lighter, and a whole lot more ready for monday than they expected.

after that we’ll tour circle r arena with paige reynolds as she gives us a behind-the-scenes look at life on a working horse farm. you’ll meet the horses, hear a little about her journey as a professional rodeo athlete, and get a glimpse into the lesson program she runs here in reisterstown.

honestly, the whole idea is pretty simple.

spend a few hours outside.

meet some good people.

pet a few horses.

have some light refreshments and leave feeling like you actually did something with your weekend instead of watching it disappear.

it’s $55 per person and includes three hours on the farm, the breathwork session, light refreshments, and hopefully a sunday you’ll remember for a while.

we’d love to have you.

last week we caught up with CJ Canby Crab Dad to check in on our crabbers in maryland

i’ve had the opportunity to connect with CJ a few times over the past few years and really appreciate the opportunity to spend a little time on the FV MISS PAULA.

there are little pockets of culture that become invisible to most people as they go about their lives

i think it’s important to get some awareness into the day to day reality of the people who supply our food and support our local Maryland culture.

for me, Poe Country isn’t about “hey this is cool look at it” it’s more about “hey meet this guy and through him, get a feel for why it’s important to support our local agricultural scene.”

after you meet the people you’re more inclined to make choices that support them

eat local

mind your wake

don’t liter

be cool
