Standing on the Shoulders of Giants

Dreams don’t just come true.

They are built, fueled, nurtured, funded, supported, crafted, and loved by a scaffold of people.

Grateful doesn’t begin to describe how I feel to the giants whose tradition of excellence is a foundation I will build on. Without them I wouldn’t have thought I could pursue my passions to the fullest the way that I have. Nor would I have thought that Hardwood Creek Farm, a place that raised me, could be my next chapter. I hope to make the people I’ve spent my life in awe of, my mentors, proud. So many people encouraged and supported me through to owning Hardwood Creek and building my dream. Special thanks from the bottom of my heart to: Colleen and Lyle Wick, Rebecca Shavlik, Zac Hansberger, Jennifer Swanson, Harriet and Ken Goodpaster, and all our dedicated clients.

The learning and progress that has happened in the last few months blows me away. I’m feeling more energized than ever to ride on. Keep an eye to this blog for stories, news, and whimsy taking place at Hardwood Creek Farm.
