Meadowbrook cart helping children

Good wishes go out to the folks at Grand Review Farm, who, working through Lifehorse.org, help terminally and chronically ill children find happiness and companionship through emotional and spiritual healing, using the horse.

Our Meadowbrook horse cart was purchased by the folks from Grand Review Farm in Michigan. They drove all the way to New Hampshire to pick it up, then turned right around and drove back home (12 hours one way!) He said that being a truck driver by trade made this no big deal for him.

This is “Domi” in Michigan hitched to our former Meadowbrook cart. (His handler is just out of the picture; we all realize it is dangerous to have the horse hitched without control of the reins…)

This cart is destined to be enjoyed by therapeutic riding students who have difficulties mounting a horse, but will be able to drive with assistance. Because this Meadowbrook has a fold-up split seat and thus can be entered from the rear, it proves suitable for the therapeutic drivers. If makes us happy to imagine the Meadowbrook now serving such a wonderful purpose.
