Nestled in the beautiful countryside, our 50 acre farm is located thirty minutes from Canada’s capital, Ottawa. The property is dotted with approximately 3000 Spruce trees, hence the name.
We are a small breeding farm of Gypsy Vanner and Canadien horses. Although different in color we were struck by the similarities between the two breeds. Smaller in stature, heavy boned, hard working and hardy horses, with the quietest of dispositions, "the perfect family horses".
 As breeders, we must always ensure the integrity of the breed and choose only quality breeding stock that will preserve the breed as intended. We traveled throughout the province of Quebec and Ontario, meeting many breeders of Canadian horses before starting our own farm and more recently, traveled to the UK, meeting many Gypsy breeders and looking at hundreds of horses in Wales and northern England. There we were able to purchase a few “colored horses”, as the Gypsies call them, to add them to our farm.
 All of our Canadian horses are registered purebreds and we have been members of the CHBA,(Canadian Horse Breeders Association), since starting our farm. We are also members of the GVHS, (Gypsy Vanner Horse Society), and promote the Gypsy Vanner horse in Canada.
We hope you enjoy your visit to our site and check back often for updates and horses for sale.
Terry, Debby and Dillon Elder
