I got this sent to me.
Just passing this on, please call Meg at 570-839-9841 for more information. There are a few listed at the bottom, but it is only a partial list as they have 24 horses to sell. These horses will probably be bombproof from doing commercial trail rides, if the folks are taking them to New Holland, they will be going for meat prices.

Thought some of you might be interested. And, if you have room this could be a great buy-resell oppurtunity. I'm sure Murphy, Tank, and Stick if sound and happy could go to a new home for a couple grand, at least.

I hope these guys find homes before the auction. I am looking for a horse but not a trail horse.

prices, or are they take ins?

You have to call Meg for prices, but I'm guessing cheap! This was originally posted on COTH, many other posters mentioned having ridden there in the past. They say the horses are wonderfully behaved and in good health. So, not skinny trail hags. They have a website, but it really just has directions to the place and a map. There are like 3 or 4 pictures of horses. Hold on I'll dig up the addy.
