Palm City Farms is blessed with many equestrian facilities.  I enjoyed seeing most all of them this past week.  An equestrian facility is almost like evaluating a home that you are selling.  What amenities does it have?  What was the purpose for its development? Luxury, function, size, location?  It's almost the same as doing a CMA for a home. After all is said and done, Palm City has something for everyone.  I am just really proud to have the most pristine facilities for one of my listings. This is QUAIL HOLLOW FARMS.  This farm is at the top of the list in any other area.  This facility has it all, Luxury, function, size, and the famous word, location.  The facility in on 14.2 acres parrellel to Citrus Boulevard and Quail Hollow Street.  The large white Steel Arena and its crisp white...

   Many people think of Wellington when thinking of dressage and events.  An area just 35 minutes north of Palm Beach is called Palm City Farms.  This was at one time landscaping and cattle.  Now some of the most pristine equestrian farms are found in Palm City Farms.  Just this weekend, Henk van Bergen  will hold a clinic at prestigious, Quail Hollow Farms.  The Clinic will be Sept 6 & 7. Quail Hollow Farms is a 19.2 acre farm surrounded by beautiful crisp PVC fencing, twin Key West Style barn and an estate home to go with it.  I have this farm listed at a very good price at $2,600.000.  We have had a price reduction; however, if you view my website you will see this is beautiful.Also. there are great opportunities to take in the Meadow Run Equestrian Community.  This is directly acros...

I have always loved art.  Artist are so valuable to all of us. They create impressions of our feelings and our everyday life.  Lisa Stokes, an artist, is from the Palm City, Florida area.  While Lisa and I talked about hores, real estate and other things, I did not know about her wonderful talent as an artist.   One day for some reason, I got an opportunity to look at Lisa's work.  I want to share with you, as a part of our Localism, Lisa Stokes, Artist, Palm City, Florida.  I am sure she would love to get some feed back about her work.  Lisa loves horses and brings that love into her art work.  Enjoy.                             LISA STOKES, ARTIST, PALM CITY, FLORIDA PALM CITYS HORSE TALK...CAROL BARRON-CROSS

   I just could not hold myself back from this one.  Is this not funny? No! we are not red necks, we just like to have a good time.  Everyone wants a sign like this to direct the party traffic, or put out in front of your estate.  Someone brought this to the last party we gave and stuck it up for traffic directions.  I wanted to share this with my friends as we do have lots of fun together in our equestrian neighborhood. Anyone who wants one, please email me because we take custom orders.  HAVE A WONDERFUL WEEKEND! PALM CITY HORSE TALK

These two little girls have grown up on my farm in Palm City.  This is Summer and Hattie, my two wonderful grandchildren. The smiles that you see on their face makes it worth all the work and joy that goes into living on a farm.  These little girls love horses and look forward to coming to see us every weekend.  When they come, they always bring their dogs, Shep and Trig. They love to groom Duchess and their other favorite horses. These are treasured days.  They have also learned the safety rules of being around horses.  The fun part has been watching them understand how a horse reacts in certain situations.  They started riding at a very early age.

There are not many times one gets bored in Palm City Farms.  There are so many family things to do. One fun event was when we invited friends and neighbors to a big party to celebrate just a good time.  We decided to bring in all kinds of entertainment for small children.  This beautiful Clydsdale came to our farm for this event and  we hauled everyone up and down our street until late in the evening.  The children just loved it.  We had pony rides for the little ones and individual riders took their horses on separate paths. Some fished in our lake and others just listened to the band.  This is just an example of the great family life that one has in this little place called Palm City Farm, Florida.  We are all lucky enough to have land large enough to have country living and our eques...

If any of your friends or family have recently applied for a home loan, you've probably heard that lenders are nervous, with tough new rules and demands for stacks of paperwork.  Good mortgages are still out there, but you should be prepared before applying.First, understand how your credit score impacts the interest rate charged on your loan.  If your score is 720 or higher on the scale of 850, you will qualify for the best rates.  If it's between 700 and 719, you could expect 0.375% added to that rate, while a score between 680 and 699 might add 0.5%.Next, determine how much you have available for down payment, and how that will affect your loan's terms.  A "conforming loan" (that would be purchased by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac) will require a minimum 10% down payment.However, if you ...

There are many things to do in Florida. One favorite thing I enjoy is having a big "Get Together" party of friends and neighbors.  It is always fun to bring in a local band, have ponies available for children to ride.  Don't leave out the adults because trail riding is after lunch. This is one of the gatherings that we had for a friend that was approaching his 40th birthday. This little girl had a ball riding Duchess.

If you are lucky enough to visit Palm City, Florida and come to the Palm City Farms area, you will see country style living in its finest.  There are horse farms, large, medium, and mini farms available in this neighborhood.  Palm City Farms is the Wellington of West Palm Beach.  We are very proud of our equestrian area and try to keep it OLD FLORIDA as much as we can.  We have the help of our Martin County Commission that protects us from becoming an overgrown area. Everyday as I drive in and out of Palm City Farms, I pass children and adults enjoying their horses trail riding. It is a common thing to see a Martin County sign with a horse on it stating  "SHARE THE ROAD". There are not many places that people can live to be free and enjoy equestrian activities as we do in Palm City.  RI...

PALM CITYS HORSE TALK presents JOHN WAYNE, a yearling and in competition at the AMERICAN WARMBLOOD SOCIETY JUDGING. My last article brought you an ariticle about windswept legs that can happening in breeding horses.  That article was all about John Wayne and his struggle to make it after birth. I ran across this picture of John Wayne being judged and later getting a ribbon from  the American WarmBlood Society.  This horse remained a stallion as long as he lived on our farm.   I hope you enjoy seeing what patience, TLC, and a lot of prayers can do.  He was really a sweetheart. This next photo is John Wayne when he was born.  By the way, the night before John Wayne was born, I watched the biography of the actor, John Wayne, and that is how he got his name.  It is amazing but he really rec...
