Halloween message from Bibbie!


The horses all dressed up for Halloween. Aaah!


Check out our Halloween Horse Show.


Congo was a man about town.


Campanita was a lovely unicorn.


Guinevere was our movie star.


Lluvia was the indian pony.


Altivo was the brave frontiersman.



Silky was queen of the horses, much to Guinie's dismay.


Zorba was the yankee and Al was the confederate, soldiers from the civil war.


I'm so happy that rainy season has finally ended.

Hello! Bibs here


Everyone was very busy here this month with Brooke and Cyrus´s wedding. WOW what a celebration! Their special day was absolutely perfect!

The horses said that they were very happy to have Adrian, our wwoof volunteer, here this month to help out with their dressage work, Happy Horses!




I can´t believe there are more goats here! Pitufa gave birth to two more of those things, a girl and a boy. It is too bad I don´t drink goat milk. But every one on the farm seems to be enjoying it.


Not only are there baby goats but there are seven puppies too! Lucy, the wiemeraner is a busy mom.


It appears the children have decided to get the horses to fly. They have been gathering together regularly to practice this strange ritual. Ready for take off!

Gentle Solutions Workshop

Hello everybody! Bibbie here. From my point of view up here in the trees it looks like it was a great month.
The Kathy Barbarite Gentle Solutions seminar was a success. I've never seen so many horses in the ring at once.
Father and Daughter Rick and Leslie came all the way from Canada. Brrr!
Dominque and her daughter Donelle brought their horse Jessie from their farm in Turrubares, Costa Rica.
Linda brought her great white faced horse, Bozo, from Dominical, Costa Rica.
Michelle visited us from Monteverde to team up again with my good friend Zorbi.

Betty came from New York to team up with Tarantino.
Everyone seemed to be having a wonderful time learning the 7 Steps and really connecting to their horses.
It was so nice to see so much communication happening and people leaving feeling more comfortable with their horses.
