When you live in a college town, you adapt to change as students, teachers and farm helpers come and go as semesters begin and end. And so we say goodbye to our graduating helper, Zach, and welcome our new resident cowgirl, Willow. This delights me to no end because I got to know Willow's mom and their family almost ten years ago when we first moved to Fort Collins and Willow brought her horse Clifford to board at Laughing Buck as a teenager. Now she is BACK, living here on the farm next to her horse, and teaching in our summer camps. Welcome back, Willow. I am as happy as Clifford is to have you here on the farm. ~FarmHer Rosemary
From Willow:
"Hi there! My name is Willow, and I am so excited to be spending the summer helping kiddos have some of the experiences that were the best parts of my childhood, and that shaped me into who I am today! I'm especially excited to get to play with the horses together, as they've been my biggest passion since I can remember. I started riding when I was 6, and grew up doing everything from English to barrel racing in 4-H. Then when I was 13 I got Clifford who is the best horse in the world, and is lucky enough to be living at Laughing Buck to this day. He has taught me so much more than I could have ever imagined and I'm so glad that he can do the same for other kiddos now. When I was 15, I got an internship with a reining trainer and spent two years doing that, which is what gave me the passion for both reining and for training horses and watching them learn and grow to be amazing partners. Training is what I eventually want to spend my life doing, but for now I am just so glad to be back at the farm! Here's to an awesome summer!"
