Barn Fire! 4 Horses Dead! Insurance isn’t Enough!

The Gardner Family lost their entire barn and indoor arena on 9/13/22. The barn was a 14 stall barn with attached indoor arena. The fire was caused by some kind of electrical failure they are thinking at the electrical panel. The family lost 4 horses including their Grand Prix Jumper a 5 year old Dutch Warmblood Stallion who was just starting his Grand Prix Career. The family also lost ALL their tack including over 20 saddles (7 CWD and 2 Alicia Burton), 50 ton of hay, the tractor, the side by side mule, a six horse trailer, a 3 horse trailer, at least 8 tack trunks,  and 4 antique horse drawn carriages. This family is qualified to be at USHJA show jumper nationals in Vegas early November. They don’t have a halter, a bridle, or a saddle. I have includes some pictures of the amazing stallion they lost and more pictures of this amazing family who are needing help from the community, their friends, and the horse lovers out there. Heartland Jumpers (located at 4535 Quarter Horse Lane Ontario OR 97914) is one of a kind amazing family who pride themselves on a foundation in natural horsemanship that includes a love for horses and a bareback and bridless connection with their equine partner. Your support is essential to get this family back on their feet. Insurance is not going to be enough to replace 1/2 of their loss. Please share our story with all your horse lover friends. This family is the most deserving family in the world for your support.
