Resthaven Farms is a small family farm located in the foothills of southwest Virginia, just over the North Carolina border and a few minutes outside of Mount Airy, NC. We usually have a few horses and the occasional good mule for sale; these are trail broke animals that we ride ourselves on mountain trails. We will have the rare older show horse or prospect but most of our horses and mules are jus
t good trail or working animals. If you are looking for something specific I can refer you to other farms in the area that may have what you are looking for. Most of our horses and mules are safe for the "average joe" rider; we sometimes will have kid-safe animals, and sometimes horses or mules that need a more experienced rider. Not every horse is for every person, so it is important to tell us exactly what your skills and needs are when you inquire. Again, if we don't have something to suit you, I am very happy to refer you to other farms. All of the horses and mules on the farm are used by us, so we can tell you honestly about the animal before you ever make the trip out to visit. We do prefer visits to the farm as opposed to long-distance purchasing, and we encourage vet checks. We may have a few dairy heifer calves and possibly an adult milk cow available at times. We have mostly Jersey cows but our preference is for a gentle cow that is halter-broke and easy to handle, no matter what the breed! Contact us for availability. Feel free to call or text 276-733-4355 anytime for more information on horse, or cows. You can also email me at [email protected]
We will be phasing out many of the horses and mules for sale, but will have a handful available from time to time. We are directing our focus more on dairy and family cows, along with some beef steers, and hope to have several of these available in the next few years. Please contact us for availability; I do not have as much time to spend working on the website as I used to.
