HISTORY
Nestled in the quaint village of Pemberton, Airdale was founded in 1985 by Sarah and John Denise as a small property with a little over 10 acres. Their small run operation was a private sanctuary the couple shared in peace with a few retired warmbloods. However, it wasn't until their daughter Denise was born did the place really take off. Memorized by the serenity of it all, the farm was eventually known as a prime location to hold retired warmblood champions. Horses were everywhere; fancy warmbloods gracefully galloping across the fields or tiredly nestled in the grass near the trees. It was something Denise called a wonderland, and it wasn't long before she found herself being offered a gift on her 16th birthday - a little colt she could call her own. Studying every book and listening to every word, no day was spent without the pregnant mare as the future's promise settled heavily into her heart. She wished every moment could hold the desire she had - an environment that would be bustling with energy and ambition. However, as much as that was the foundation of the new Airdale, it became long forgotten for years up until the death of Sarah and John. Grief and depression weren't exactly what Denise wanted - but it might have been exactly what she needed. Amidst the broken home and forgotten dreams, it was a journey where discovery lead the best way to recovery, and a sanctuary was remade in the exact place it was broken. Struggling, Airdale barely made it back onto its feet, but once it did, it quickly became a new dream - a land melding into the hearts of others. Now, Airdale resides as a place where volunteers and drifters with passion and drive can slowly start healing themselves while also breeding and raising horses as valuable as time.
