were proud of our 15yr journey with reindeer
It started with 2 reindeer 15 years ago
We hope you enjoy our our journey, from a small shed and 3 fenced acres (2 pastures), now 4 pastures, we have worked tirelessly since we could remortgage our home 2 more times in 2024. we pushed thru health issues, freezing cold, and lack of sleep, Anyone who visited in 2024 before stalls were built certainly remember stack of rough cut and poor lighting. but we did it, with just the help of my son Chris & 2 friends from our firefighting days, Jeff & Missy. its time and well deserved to share our little reindeer jem with everyone. New babies, new stalls, new and expanded fun and memories. I hope you enjoy this amputee's dream.
