Even More Progress! Four Inches Of Chipped Drainage Rock Installed In Our Horse Arena At Cascadia Heritage Farm!

The path to joy, hope, and appreciation has many twists and literally tons of chipped drainage rock! Alaistair and team are making great progress on our riding arena. They have installed 1 ¼” chipped rock that is 4 inches thick. They have graded and rolled it. It was round 90 cubic yards, and that is tons and tons of rock! They are spreading another layer of 6 oz. geotextile on this rock. This geotextile is needle puncture for drainage and very strong.  Alaistair is making the horse arena beautiful and a work of functional art. The goal with all of these layers of French drains, geotextile, chipped rock, more geotextile, and sand is to allow the arena to drain quickly so it can be used year-round and to have the perfect footing for our ponies. Stay tuned to see the sand additive we will add to create an even better supportive surface for our Dales Ponies. We are excited to continue to develop our property, lifestyle, and mission to promote, preserve and showcase these endangered animals and this vanishing lifestyle.  It does matter, what we do matters, what you do matters. We at Cascadia Heritage Farm are thankful for this opportunity!
