Ten years ago we started riding horses
at a little hidden farm in Richboro Pennsylvania that converted an old cow barn into a horse barn. One thing led to another
and before you know it we were boarding three horses at the farm.
In 2004 the owner of
the farm let us know that she planned to sell the farm to a developer that was planning a 13 home development on the site.
With farms that were once the norm in Bucks County Pennsylvania rapidly being absorbed by developments, we could not let that
happen to the farm we have come to love, even in its rapidly deteriorating state. We were able to strike a deal with the owner
to buy the farm and allow her to run her business there continuing to train us and our horses.
Thrilled with “buying the farm” we had no idea what we were getting into. This turned
out to be one of the best choices we made. Our 19 stall custom barn, built by Sylvan Stoltzfus Builders LLC, boasts state
of the art equipment including an automatic fly spray system, six car wash like wash stalls, and a heated indoor ring.
In May 2010 Sommerfield Stables and Royce’s Rescue moved Water Stream
Farm, nestled against miles of trails through Tyler State Park in Bucks County Pennsylvania.Sommerfield
