ABOUT
OUR FARMS
Sinking Creek Farm and Olde Homestead Farm are located in
Botetourt County outside of historic Fincastle, Virginia in
the Blue Ridge Mountains.
|
|
|
|
|
The
original farm was purchased in 1951 by the James H.
Webb family from Payson, Utah. The farm was passed down
in 1994 to two daughters, Carol Bernstein and Judy Sanders,
who retained the land adding horse barns, run-ins, a
riding ring, and miles of horse trails.
Carol
Bernstein is the owner of Sinking Creek Farm and Judy
and Russell Sanders own Olde Homestead Farm. Both farms
are located in Botetourt County outside of historic
Fincastle, Virginia in the Blue Ridge Mountains. We
are about a 45 minute drive from Roanoke, Virginia.
Visitors are always welcome. Call or e-mail
for directions.

Our
goal is to raise Miniature Horses & Donkeys with
excellent conformation, beautiful color, and friendly
dispositions. Our herd size is limited so that we can
give every horse and donkey individual care and lots
of daily grooming and attention, including hugs and
kisses, which they love. |
| All
of our horses & donkeys receive vaccinations in
the spring which include West Nile Virus, Rabies, Tetanus,
Potomic and a 5-way vaccine which consists of Respiratory
Rhinopneumonitis, EHV 1 & 4, E & W Encephalomyelitis,
A1 & A2 Influenza. Daily supplements are added to
food. All receive regular dental care. Hoofs are trimmed
every 8 weeks by a certified farrier and they are also
on an 8 week de-worming schedule. |
|
 |
Our
foals are all imprinted shortly after birth.
Foals are weaned between the ages of 4 and
5 months at which time they can go to their
new homes.
All
of our Horses are registered with AMHA. Donkeys are
registered with the Miniature Donkey Registry, ADMS.

The
pugs at Sinking Creek and Olde Homestead Farm
are the main greeting party as you drive up
the drive to the main house. Our females,
Mei Ling, Shu Fang, and Kuan Yin, and our
male, Ho Tei Lei, romp and play the days away
in their private yard.
Pugs
enjoy lots of attention, love people, especially
children, and are quite adept at choosing
cats as their best friend!
