Magic Beans Have Arrived! A Sand Additive That Will Be Installed In Our Horse Arena At Cascadia Heritage Farm!

The path to joy, hope, and appreciation has many twists and literally tons of polypropylene and nylon! Alaistair and team are making great progress on our riding arena. They are getting ready to install a special polypropylene and nylon sand additive that was determined to be the best match based on the sand we are using. The combination of this additive and the sand we selected will provide the most structure and best footing for our Dales Ponies. Alaistair and team are in the process of racking it and grading it in preparation for the additive. 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, sand and sand additive are 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 if I can win the Birthday Challenge of finishing the horse arena before Shuna’s birthday! 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!
