We’ve been keeping Frannie under wraps all summer/fall, and she’s HUGE now! 3/4 Maremma Sheepdog and 1/4 Great Pyrenees. Her name is inspired by our San FRANciscan roots. Frannie will be keeping us and our animals safe from predators, and drunken neighbors. 🤞😂

Why did the snapping turtle cross the road? 🐢😅🤷‍♂️

This massive snapper hibernates in our wetland and we found her waking up! She was spotted a few years ago scouting for nesting spots on our property and hopefully we see her doing the same again this year! ❤️🐢🐢🐢 Next logical question, what do we name her? 😂

🤍 Horses are Healers🖤

We would like to formally introduce our Yin & Yang ☯️
Meet Tonka Truck & Meaghan Thee Stallion!
These two landed in our lap in the most unexpected way…

Last year we stopped into our neighbors barn for an antique sale, where we chatted and let them know if they ever had a stall open up, to let us know.

Time went on and we resumed working on our plan to build a small horse barn on our land.

We had just begun to accept that it was going to be at least 3 more years before we’d have horses in our life again, when our neighbor called and connected us with Tonka & Meg’s owner.
She was just getting ready to rehome them to a therapy program, as she wanted them to get a little more work & attention. 🤯
It sounded too good to be true.

After meeting & talking through Lauren’s background with horses & our goals for the farm, we are happy to announce they are now a part Ivy Hill Farm family!

Little did we know we’d need them more than they needed us 🖤🤍

Oh and the real kicker is…our neighbor later told us that he actually had meant to call another woman in town who was interested in the barn & had our numbers mixed up 😂
Talk about luck 🍀
