Four heifer calves so far to start off 2026 🎀🎀🎀🎀

Our names are Pony, Piggy, Duckie and Tiger. Anyone want to guess the theme for names this year?

Late night herd checks in the rain sometimes yields really cute pictures of our Littles 🥰 This is Buckle — she was born the same day as our nephew won his first National Championship (and belt buckle). She is such a sweetheart and we are so glad she gets to stay to help our herd expand in the coming years 🙌🏼

It’s feeling a little like Fall 🍁🍂

This one is extra special… we bred his mom and his dad and so he feels a little like a grandkid 😂

Meet Pretzel 🥨

He is the kindest, sweetest, friendliest little feller you ever did meet. He checks all the boxes on what we have aimed to create in terms of temperament - and he is so darn cute!

We have been blessed with some beautiful calves this spring!

Today’s introduction goes to little Mocha ☕️

If you are noticing a trend - then you might already know that every year we pick a theme for naming calves, and this year it is food. It’s so fun to think of names, and an added bonus is you know by their name what year they were born 🙌🏼

Our Story

Country Meadow Farm is a family owned farm with a solid foundation in safety and genuine horsemanship. We have built an educational environment that produces solid horses and riders. In addition to offering riding lessons and training, we are also home t0 the non-profit organization, Heaven Touching Earth. This organization allows us to offer equine assisted therapy and learning, as well as child and adult programs. Our heart is to offer those who come a little piece of “heaven touching earth” every time they step foot on the farm. We want to reflect the heart of God through relationships with horses and people. Please visit the Heaven Touching Earth page to learn more!

We offer a dynamic team of instructors, Haley Alger and Shelby (Turner) Rader. Haley served as CMF's intern for over a year before being offered a position at Sweet Briar College Riding Center as their East Wing Captain. Now pursuing her license as a message therapist, Haley continues to teach the beginner and intermediate lessons at CMF. She is so gifted with people and horses, so being a riding instructor is an obvious fit for Haley’s bubbling personality and genuine character. Haley also belongs to her equine partner, Buttercup.

Shelby Rader is an NCSU Certified open judge, and carded as a judge through the Open Horse Show Association. As a former western coach for two colleges, Shelby loves teaching riding and advancing horses. She has shown across the U.S. and Canada, and taught lessons and trained horses of various breeds and disciplines . Shelby is also an active participant in the Certified Horsemanship Association (CHA). She serves on their national marketing and membership committee, as well as being a Regional Director. After completing her Equine Facility Manager Certification through CHA, she completed her riding instructor certification in both English and Western.

Emily Perrotta is the newest addition to the CMF team and Heaven Touching Earth! She brings an extensive skill set to the table including but not limited to experience with trauma victims, relational work with at-risk youth, administrative leadership, and a graduate of the CMF internship program. We are thrilled to have her and look forward to the many ways she will be a part of our future!
