    <title>Equestrian properties, luxury estates, farms, and ranches in Palm City, Florida</title>
    <link>http://activerain.com/blogs/carolcross</link>
    <description>I am very much into loving horses and spending my days on a farm as much as possible. We have raised American Warmbloods and had a wonderful time, especially with our young colts.  They are really spirited and exciting to see them compete and become part of your family.  I am in real estate and, of course, farm land and equestrian farms are my special love.   Palm City Farms was nothing but a cattle ranch and landscaping farms when I came to Florida.  Now Palm City Farms is a growing equestrian community.</description>

&lt;p&gt;Palm City, Florida is located in Martin County, just 35 minutes north of Palm Beach. Equestrian living is a luxury in this small neighborhood. It is a few minutes away from beautiful beaches and surrounded with the St. Lucie and Indian River. This pristine area of Palm City Farms has tucked away many beautiful equestrian estates. Many types of equestrian activity thrives here. Every afternoon or early morning, horsemen exercise their horses along bridle paths as people go about their activities. It is just a common thing to see in this beautiful area of Palm City Farms. &lt;br /&gt;One gorgeous property that is available for sale and has been reduced to a very low price due to market conditions, is pristine Quail Hollow Farms. Quail Hollow must be sold. This lush 14.2 acre equestrian estate has been reduced to $1,600,000. The five acre estate home is being sold separately. Together the price has dropped to $2,050,000. This has been an income producing property. Quail Hollow just recently had as its guest, Henk Van Bergen. &lt;br /&gt;See my website, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.linkedin.com/redirect?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Emysunflowerfarmfl%2Ecom&amp;amp;urlhash=aQga&amp;amp;_t=disc_detail_link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.mysunflowerfarmfl.com&lt;/a&gt; and see more of this beautiful property.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Palm Citys Horse Talk: Longmeadow Rescue Ranch, Union, Missouri:  A Goodbye to Koty: by Merian Reins</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;img title=&quot;GUest&quot; src=&quot;http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/7/3/4/9/1/ar125629278519437.jpg&quot; height=&quot;480&quot; alt=&quot;Longwood&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Marian Reins&lt;/strong&gt; is an exceptional woman that lives in &lt;strong&gt;St. Louis, Missour&lt;/strong&gt; and multi-tasks a business, family, and&amp;nbsp;volunteers to care for horses at &lt;strong&gt;Longmeadow Rescue Ranch&lt;/strong&gt;....50 miles away from her home. Marian is my guest and enjoy her story.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As a volunteer at &lt;strong&gt;Longmeadow Rescue Ranch in Union, Missouri&lt;/strong&gt;, I love all the horses, but my main love was &lt;strong&gt;Koty.&lt;/strong&gt; He's a fabulous young Thoroughbred and one of the most affectionate horses I have ever known. Not a day went by that I didn't think of him.&lt;br /&gt;I arrived at Longmeadow at 7:00 a.m. one Sunday, full of anticipation - I had been waiting all week to see Koty. I turned off my car, jumped out, ran to the door of the barn and hurried down the center alleyway toward Koty's stall. &lt;strong&gt;Then suddenly everything in my field of vision faded except one small green sign that&lt;/strong&gt; hung from Koty's stall door. It read, &quot;&lt;strong&gt;Adopted.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Many people at Longmeadow have had the same experience of falling in love with a horse, then arriving one day to find the green sign. It's the same feeling of loss that one experiences when a good friend moves away. Love gives these animals new life - sometimes love hurts. &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; For Koty, his new life was just beginning. I dried my tears and walked back to his stall. He greeted me at his door with his head held low as I hugged his neck. He gently rested his head next to my body. That was the last time I saw Koty. Everyone at Longmeadow hopes that the animals will be adopted by loving families, and for the most part it's a happy time when those days arrive.&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Koty left Longmeadow. And we're still there - the staff and volunteers who are blessed to serve our animal friends. And you never know - someday I might be a Longmeadow volunteer who adopts a loving horse, one just like my friend Koty.&lt;br /&gt;-Marian Rein&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My Comment: I certainly can appreciate Marian's emotion. A horse's trust is built by consistency, routine, and love. They are like people, they can sense sincerity. Horses can be your best friend.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>PALM CITYS HORSE TALK....IS PALM CITY NEAR THE ATLANTIC OCEAN?</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Palm City Farms, Palm City, Florida...Equestrian Neighborhood&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Just to add a note about beautiful Palm City Farms, Palm City, Florida&lt;/strong&gt;. We are only 35 miles north of Palm Beach and we really consider ourselves the Wellington of the Stuart-Palm City Area. We have pristine properties that are affordable and we also have the beaches just fifteen minutes away. We also have the Old Florida style of living. We are an upscale equestrian neighborhood with a laid back attitude. Nice fresh air and a place for everyone. See my website at &lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.mysunflowerfarmfl.com&lt;/a&gt;and see these properties. Gated communities with equestrian activities, private estates, luxury estates, pristine riding facilities and great location.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I specialize in country homes and equestrian properties.&amp;nbsp; I love the lifestyle and eager to find that perfect property for my clients.&amp;nbsp; It is a true statement about Palm City when I say that &quot;&amp;nbsp;we have something for everyone&quot;.&amp;nbsp;We have affordable living and we have our luxury estates. &amp;nbsp;Our lifestyle is somewhat laid back but who cannot argue that a trip to the beach is only 15 minutes and a trip to the barn is just a step away and location to convenient shopping is almost immediate.&amp;nbsp; That is why I&amp;nbsp;live in Palm City.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img title=&quot;Roosevelt&quot; src=&quot;http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/2/9/1/7/6/ar125569210467192.jpg&quot; height=&quot;483&quot; alt=&quot;Bridge&quot; width=&quot;350&quot; style=&quot;float: right;&quot; /&gt;Palm City is located just to the left of the Roosevelt Bridge. The water is the St. Lucie River and if you look to the top, that is the Atlantic Ocean.&amp;nbsp; Historic town of Stuart is located at the entrance to the Roosevelt Bridge.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Many restaurants are located in the historic district and quaint specialty shops are there for shoppers to browse.&amp;nbsp; The Treasure Coast Mall is located to the top left.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Many people have asked me about the distant from Palm City to the Atlantic.&amp;nbsp; This is a very easy visual way to see that we are really just right there&lt;/strong&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;On the other hand, we have the luxury of country style living in Palm City and its Palm City Farms area. In the western communities of Palm City, we have Cobblestone, Stuart West, Meadow Run and many others. Of course we have private properties that vary in size...some have equestrian farms and others just enjoy lots of space.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;COME ENJOY OUR BEAUTIFUL STYLE OF LIVING IN PALM CITY. ITS OLD FLORIDA AT ITS BEST.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>GOT YOUR CANDY READY? GET READY HOLLOWEEN IS COMING..See Tellico Plains, Tenn They're  ready.</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Knoxvill&lt;img title=&quot;Tellico Plains Halloween&quot; src=&quot;http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/2/8/6/0/5/ar125560988650682.jpg&quot; height=&quot;450&quot; alt=&quot;Tellico Plains&quot; width=&quot;600&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Tellico Plains, Tennessee is a laid back little village found just southeast of Knoxville.&amp;nbsp; To me, it is one of my favorite places to visit and could be a happy camper should I live there.&amp;nbsp; I have met so many nice people in this town.&amp;nbsp; Southern hospitality drips from all the villagers and the best hang out is the Old Bakery. Starbucks takes the back seat to their coffee and the pastries are drop dead good.&amp;nbsp; One day as I was waiting for my order, the rangers came in and took a huge box back up to the forestry center.&amp;nbsp; They knew the best place to go for great food.&amp;nbsp; I can just smell the great food and even better the fresh mountain air.&amp;nbsp; Scenery is beautiful and little Tellico Plains seems to always have a smile waiting for everyone.&amp;nbsp; I love to ride the mountains with my husband on our touring bike.&amp;nbsp; I look forward every year to the sounds of the crackling fire in our log cabin and a crsp ride down to the village on our bike.&amp;nbsp; For Flordia people, this is a treat.&amp;nbsp; Love this place. See my listings on Ball Play Road on Harland Mountain. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.mysunflowerfarmfl.com&quot;&gt;Http://www.mysunflowerfarmfl.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>PALM CITY, FLORIDA, FIVE ACRE EQUESTRIAN FARM REDUCED..BEAUTIFUL FARM AND PRICED TO SELL</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;img title=&quot;Property&quot; src=&quot;http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/3/0/3/5/3/ar125560666435303.jpg&quot; height=&quot;431&quot; alt=&quot;Property&quot; width=&quot;650&quot; /&gt;REDUCED! Quail Hollow Equestrian Farm is being offered for sale in different parcels.&amp;nbsp; The Old Home site is reminiscent of OLD PALM BEACH, as in the olden days.&amp;nbsp; As I wondered through this gorgeous estate, I could not help but think of OLD PALM BEACH and its parties of days gone by.&amp;nbsp; It has a flair of the Bahamas, old Johns Island architecture, and North Palm Beach Island, as we see it today.&amp;nbsp; One thing it does state is SOUTHERN LIVING appeal. The home once resided in Sewalls Point, built in 1950, and brought to its location to serve Quail Hollow Farm as its main residence.&lt;br /&gt;The house does not appear as a sprawling home as it is approached from the driveway.&amp;nbsp; However, 4,303 square feet meanders around the courtyard, plus, there is a Guest House that has been newly constructed, too.&amp;nbsp; A four stall barn is located nearby and a huge utility building for feed, tack, shop maintenance and shavings.&lt;br /&gt;The property is surrounded by pretty PVC fencing and a security gate.&amp;nbsp; OLD FLORIDA! Quail Hollow has a very calm feeling inside the property.&amp;nbsp; This is a must see.&amp;nbsp; Call listing agent.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What else would you like to do?&amp;nbsp; This property's courtyard pool makes relaxing easy and one can watch their horses as they relax. Everything is centered around the equestrian activity of the farm.&amp;nbsp; Just a great property and price right.&amp;nbsp; PALM CITYS HORSE TALK.&lt;img title=&quot;Barn&quot; src=&quot;http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/9/6/1/0/6/ar125560681760169.jpg&quot; height=&quot;433&quot; alt=&quot;Quail Hollow Farms&quot; width=&quot;526&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>PALM CITYS HORSE TALK:  FROM ST. LOUIS, MARIAN REIN (Longmeadow Rescue Ranch)....My Guest</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Longmeadow Rescue Ranch&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As a young girl, I dreamed of becoming a horse woman - I took riding lessons and covered the walls of my bedroom with posters of horses. Since then, I've become a mother, a publisher and developed a high level of compassion for animals, but I have yet to become the horse woman of my dreams. &lt;br /&gt;In April of this year, I rekindled that dream. I found Longmeadow Rescue Ranch, just 50 miles from my St. Louis home. Located in Union, Missouri, &lt;strong&gt;Longmeadow is home to nearly 160 farm animals,&lt;/strong&gt; mostly horses, that have been abused and neglected. I became a volunteer and spend Sundays at the ranch, mucking stalls, feeding animals and learning more about caring for horses. With loving hands of staff and volunteers,&lt;strong&gt; these horses embark on a journey of healing&lt;/strong&gt; that brings most of them back to good health.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;One might think that being at a ranch that rehabilitates abused and neglected farm animals, some of whom have endured unspeakable cruelty, would spur feelings of sadness in me - an ardent animal lover. At times I experience sadness, but mostly &lt;strong&gt;I feel gratitude that Longmeadow exists.&lt;/strong&gt; Despite the often severe circumstances that bring animals to the ranch, the Humane Society of Missouri's Longmeadow Rescue Ranch is a peaceful place where healing and love are just commonplace.&lt;br /&gt;To learn more about Longmeadow Rescue Ranch, visit&lt;strong&gt; www.longmeadowrescueranch.org&lt;/strong&gt;. To read more about my experiences at Longmeadow, visit &lt;strong&gt;www.javajournalonline.com. Click on &quot;archives&lt;/strong&gt;&quot; and read the full story in the &lt;strong&gt;August, 2009 issue of Java Journal&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;-Marian Rein&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>PALM CITY'S HORSE TALK PRESENTS  MARIAN REIN FROM ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;HORSE PEOPLE ARE THE BEST&lt;/strong&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Since I started my blog, &lt;strong&gt;PALM CITY'S HORSE TALK&lt;/strong&gt;, I have met so many wonderful people through my little real estate blog.&amp;nbsp; &lt;strong&gt;Most horse people understand other horse people&lt;/strong&gt;.&amp;nbsp; &lt;strong&gt;We all have one major thing in common.....just the pure love for our horses&lt;/strong&gt;.&amp;nbsp; Horses seem to bring out the best in people.&amp;nbsp; Since I specialize in horse properties and country homes&amp;nbsp;in my real estate business, I&amp;nbsp;meet a lot of wonderful people that enjoy the same lifestyle and ideas of country life as I love.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Through &lt;strong&gt;Palm City's Horse Talk&lt;/strong&gt;, I was contacted by &lt;strong&gt;Marian Rein&lt;/strong&gt;, from St. Louis, Missouri.&amp;nbsp; Marian and I shared a few stories and again, I found a big story with this remarkable lady.&amp;nbsp; I have asked Marian to share some of her stories with&amp;nbsp;you, my&amp;nbsp;readers.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Marian Rein had a dream and love for horses when she was a child.&amp;nbsp; Now Marian lives in&amp;nbsp;St. Louis&amp;nbsp;and publishes a local newspaper,&amp;nbsp; Marian is now beginning to pursue a long-buried dream&amp;nbsp;of becoming a horse woman.&lt;img title=&quot;Horse woman&quot; src=&quot;http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/7/8/9/8/1/ar125547303618987.jpg&quot; height=&quot;572&quot; alt=&quot;Mirian Rein&quot; width=&quot;639&quot; /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;Hi, Carol. thank you so much for writing back. I went to your website.&amp;nbsp; It's indescribable property.&amp;nbsp; Your blog describes the area so well. I live in St. Louis, publish a local newspaper, my son is 15 and goes to wonderful private school...and I'm beginning to pursue a long-buried dream of becoming a horse woman. In addition to my business, nature and animals are my passion.&amp;nbsp; I volunteer at Longmeadow Rescue Ranch here in Missouri, where there are sometimes 100 horses being cared for at one time, trained and adopted out.&amp;nbsp; It gives me an opportunity to care for horses and satisfy my hunger for nature. The trainer there is working with me to achieve some goals--to improve my riding skills (not that I have any) and to train using natural horsemanship methods. My son and I spent a summer on a horse ranch in Arkansas in 2005, where I learned about natural horsemanship.&amp;nbsp; I rode English as a young girl, but I knew nothing of natural horsemanship.&amp;nbsp; It was eye-opening. Carol, I will bookmark your blog.&amp;nbsp; The snow of Missouri is slowly losing its charm.&amp;nbsp; By the way, are there any horse publications in Palm City&quot;?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I thought it would be great to read some of her journals; therefore, I have asked Marian to be my guest on my blog and share some of her experiences at Longmeadow Rescue Ranch.&amp;nbsp; LOOK FOR MARIAN!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>PALM CITY, FLORIDA EQUESTRIAN FACILITY FOR SALE $2,200,000</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Palm City Farms is blessed with many equestrian facilities.&#160; I enjoyed seeing most all of them this past week.&#160; An equestrian facility is almost like evaluating a home that you are selling.&#160; What amenities does it have?&#160; What was the purpose for its development? Luxury, function,&#160;size, location?&#160; It's almost the same as doing a CMA for a home.&#160;After all&#160;is said and done, Palm City has something for everyone.&#160; I am just really proud to have the most pristine facilities&#160;for one of my listings.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This is QUAIL HOLLOW FARMS.&#160; &lt;/strong&gt;This farm is at the top of the list in any other area.&#160; &lt;strong&gt;This facility has it all,&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Luxury, function, size, and the famous word, location.&#160; The facility in on 14.2 acres parrellel to Citrus Boulevard and Quail Hollow Street.&#160; The large white Steel Arena and its crisp white PVC fencing makes a statement while taking the drive through the estate facility.&#160; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>PALM CITYS HORSE TALK: FOUR ACRES STUART- WEST HOME REDUCED!!</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;This beautiful Palm City home is located in Stuart-West, a gated community with just about 200 families.&#160; This beautiful community has&#160;about eighty percent equestrian properties.&#160;&#160;The acerage is from two to ten acres.&#160; This stately estate is totally private, fenced with nice crisp PVC fencing and has its own security gate.&#160; While the exterior is superior, the interior design is upscale&#160;in every amenity.&#160; Extra large pool, large great room, designer bath rooms, and four bedrooms if you so desire.&#160; There is not one thing that would have to be done for a move in ready home.&#160; It is stunning. See my website for more information.&#160; Just&#160;call for an appointment.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>PALM CITYS HORSE TALK:  Week In Review....Reductions</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Palm City Farms, Florida&lt;/strong&gt; is a fast growing equestrian area just north of&lt;strong&gt; Palm Beach, Florida....just about&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;35 minutes&lt;/strong&gt;.&amp;nbsp; Many farms are between five acres and on up to very large farms.&amp;nbsp; Most of the vary large farms are located near the Okeechobee area.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This week many things have happened that is a good thing for my readers to know.&amp;nbsp; There have been some &lt;strong&gt;major price reductions&lt;/strong&gt; in the equestrian properties that are available.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/2/6/0/1/1/ar125233441211062.JPG&quot; height=&quot;315&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; width=&quot;420&quot; style=&quot;MARGIN: 15px; FLOAT: right;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;QUAIL HOLLOW FARMS, 19.2 acre estate has been reduced to $2,600.000.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This includes the five acre home place estate that has a four stall barn and 4,043 sq ft in the home&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;An then we have the historic home place that is reminiscent of the days of Old Palm Beach. This has been &lt;strong&gt;drastically reduced for sale from $799,000 to $649,000&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img title=&quot;hollow farms&quot; src=&quot;http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/3/8/8/9/3/ar125233518039883.jpg&quot; height=&quot;303&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; width=&quot;450&quot; style=&quot;MARGIN: 15px; FLOAT: right;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This is really a great home and income property.&amp;nbsp; There are four stalls that can be rented and a large garage, tack, and electronic security gates for privacy.&amp;nbsp; The property is surrounded by beautiful PVC Fencing.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This property offers a lot for its price. Bring offers.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>PALM CITY HORSE TALK: MY  EQUESTRIAN CENTER</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;img title=&quot;My Equestrian Center&quot; src=&quot;http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/1/8/8/2/5/ar125206760252881.gif&quot; height=&quot;260&quot; alt=&quot;Sunflower Farms&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; As a child and growing up on our family farm in Alabama, I experienced some of the best times of my life.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For instance, I learned to drive a jeep when I was about ten. I loved to splash through the mud puddles and give the jeep another gear.&amp;nbsp; Farm life is really the roots of our country and my life.&amp;nbsp; I had the opportunity to learn management at the early age of thirteen.&amp;nbsp; Up at five in the morning and out to the job.&amp;nbsp; My father believed that my sister and I should always be managers of our own.&amp;nbsp; I learned many lessons of what I could do and not do.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I was lucky, I started at the bottom to learn and each summer I would graduate to a better position.&amp;nbsp; I was paid $3.00 a day and could not spend it because it went into my college education.&amp;nbsp; My jobs were farm jobs and not in the air conditioned office.&amp;nbsp; However, I did make it to the office by the time I was ready for college.&amp;nbsp; At that time, women did not normally go for a business degree, but my father thought it would be best if I did.&amp;nbsp; I sat in the University of Alabama and was the only girl in my class on many occasions.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I look back today and reflect on what farm life taught me and what good work ethics my parents gave me. I went to the city and lived the metropolitan life for twenty years. My family farm is still beautiful as ever but I came back to farm life and the equestrian life in Florida and truly found myself again.&amp;nbsp; I now have an equestrian farm that is a breeding farm. I manage it, and I manage my equestrian real estate career at the same time.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I&amp;nbsp;have always loved architecture&amp;nbsp;so when we were building the farm, I thought about an Inn that I had seen in New England and&amp;nbsp;here is what I came up with when it was finished.&amp;nbsp;Sunflower is for sale $2,950,000&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>PALM CITY, FLORIDA: PALM CITY FARMS EQUINE BUSINESS IS OUR WELLINGTON </title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;img title=&quot;Quail Hollow&quot; src=&quot;http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/5/5/6/0/3/ar125205992930655.jpg&quot; height=&quot;800&quot; alt=&quot;horse&quot; width=&quot;579&quot; /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Many people think of Wellington when thinking of&lt;strong&gt; dressage&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;events&lt;/strong&gt;.&amp;nbsp; An area just &lt;strong&gt;35 minutes north of&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Palm Beach&lt;/strong&gt; is called &lt;strong&gt;Palm City Farms&lt;/strong&gt;.&amp;nbsp; This was at one time landscaping and cattle.&amp;nbsp; Now some of the most&amp;nbsp;pristine equestrian farms are found in Palm City Farms.&amp;nbsp; Just this weekend, Henk van Bergen&amp;nbsp; will hold a clinic at prestigious, &lt;strong&gt;Quail Hollow Farms&lt;/strong&gt;.&amp;nbsp; The Clinic will be Sept 6 &amp;amp; 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.&amp;nbsp; I have this farm listed at a very good price at &lt;strong&gt;$2,600.000&lt;/strong&gt;.&amp;nbsp; We have had a price reduction; however, if you view my website you will see this is beautiful.&lt;br /&gt;Also. there are great opportunities to take in the &lt;strong&gt;Meadow Run Equestrian Community&lt;/strong&gt;.&amp;nbsp; This is directly across the street from Quail Hollow.&amp;nbsp; Stately homes are being built in this development and there is an equestrian center for the community.&amp;nbsp; For a low, low price of &lt;strong&gt;$171,000&lt;/strong&gt;, five acres can be purchased and have a neighbor in a mansion just across the street. &lt;br /&gt;There are also opportunities for equestrian property a little west of Palm City near Okeechobee.&amp;nbsp; &lt;strong&gt;Sherman Ranches&lt;/strong&gt; is another equestrian development that got stung and is coming back. Nine beautiful acres in this community can be purchased for &lt;strong&gt;$329,000&lt;/strong&gt;. Travel to West Palm, Okeechobee and Palm City is just minutes away.&lt;br /&gt;Boarding facilities are opening with huge facilities and&amp;nbsp; arenas.&amp;nbsp; Just within the last year there have been three huge boarding companies move to Martin County for only boarding.&lt;br /&gt;Palm CIty also is located between Highway 95 and the Florida Turnpike. This is an easy access especially when pulling a horse trailer.&lt;br /&gt;I feel our area is starting to bud a little.&amp;nbsp; We have seen a stand still for a while but I believe there is light coming over the horizon.&lt;/p&gt;
