This is so great!!

💗 A HUGE SHOUT-OUT TO SOME AMAZING BUSINESSES IN OUR COMMUNITY! 💗

The support for The Julie Jacobs Legacy Barn continues to amaze us!

We recently had the idea of keeping housekeeping supplies right at the barn so everyone using the facility has what they need to help keep our beautiful new barn clean and looking great for years to come. These supplies would belong to the barn and be available for everyone to use.

Well… our local businesses & Local Horse Lovers stepped up once again! ❤️

A HUGE thank you to The Farmyard Store & Newport Rental, The Pick and Shovel, Newport Farm and Garden - Agway, Tractor Supply Co., Jen Cotton & Krissy Gregory for generously donating the supplies we needed!

Thanks to their generosity, the barn now has:

🛒 4 Wheelbarrows
🧹 3 Push Brooms
🧹 3 Small Brooms
🧹 1 Straw Broom
🪏 4 Shovels
🌿 1 Metal Rake
🐴 7 Pitchforks
💨 1 Big Red Dust Collector

All of these supplies will be kept in Stall #31 and are available for everyone using the barn.

We simply ask that when you use something, please return it to Stall #31 as soon as you are finished so it is ready for the next person.

Please help us take care of these donated supplies and make sure they stay available for everyone for years to come. If something accidentally gets broken, we just ask that you help us replace it.

Once again, THANK YOU to these wonderful local businesses & Local Horse Lovers for continuing to support The Julie Jacobs Legacy Barn and our local horse community! 💗🐴

We are incredibly fortunate to have businesses that continue to step up and support this project!

VERY NICE DONATION!!

🐴 BIG NEWS FOR STALL RESERVATIONS!! 🎉

If you have a stall reserved in the Julie Jacobs Legacy Barn this weekend, we have some great news!

We’ve been told that the North Country Mountaineers Snowmobile Club and Orleans SnowStormers Snowmobile Club have generously donated ALL of the sawdust for the Agriculture Area!

What does that mean for you?

Bring a wheelbarrow! When you arrive, you can head behind Barn 6, pick up sawdust, and get your brand-new stall bedded and ready for your horse. 🐴 Please also see some House Keeping Reminders for our new facility.

A HUGE THANK YOU to our local snowmobile clubs for supporting the Vermont's Orleans County Fair and our horse community! ❤️

It’s pretty awesome to see different parts of our local community come together to help make Fair week happen.

See you this weekend!!
