Gabriel McLellan

Gabriel McLellan was born at Windhorse Farm in the farmhouse in the Summer of 2006. My first born and decidedly wild child loves this place fully. His first days and weeks were spent naked on the dock by the lake, in a sling staring at the pine canopy on the forest trails and in the beautiful Juniper lodge where we lived.
Over the past five years Gabe has spent many afternoons playing in the waterways, eating dirt, climbing trees and and chasing chickens. He loves to ride the tractor and Ted the horse and eat waffles with Umpa and help Uma in the garden.
This Spring has been a particularly magical time for Gabe at the farm because he has gone to visit without his parents. He stays with Uma and Umpa and sleeps in his own room like the independent guy that he is.
It is also a special time at the farm because of the other children that are living there. How wonderful it is to walk through the forest and hear the laughing and calling from children mixed with the sound of sweetwater brook and squeaky squirrels.

Ted

Ted is an old friend. He has lived at Windhorse for over 15 years.  He has pulled wagons full of people, sleighs through the snow and logs out of the forest. He used to walk with a bit of a wiggle and nip at his horse team mates. His playful energy and hardworking heft has made him a beloved part of the farm community. He has outlived many of his compatriots, Bob, Star, Rock and others. He now spends his days with his friend Cody in the barnyard and the upper meadow. Next time you visit the farm, go give Ted a scratch and you can hope for a lippy kiss in return.
