Philippa
Philippa lived
in West Vancouver until aged 12,
then moved to Montreal where she
took riding lessons!
She was hooked! The
family moved to an acreage when
Philippa was 16 when she finally got
her own horse and total insanity
ruled from that time onwards.
;-)
She studied
Agriculture with a major in Animal
Science at MacDonald College of
McGill University, married
when she finished University in
1981 and moved to Gabriola
where she had a herd of 40 milking
goats. The milk from her goats
was used to make cheese. ​She moved
from Gabriola
Island to Ladysmith in December of
1988.
Mary
No, that's not a picture of Mary. She's camera shy.
Mary grew up in
Smithers where her Dad logged with
horses.
Mary always wanted
her own horse but was never allowed
After she moved out
of the family home around age 20, her
dream of owning a horse was finally
realized. She bought her
first horse, an Appaloosa named
Cindy. She took
lessons on Cindy and did lots of trial
riding.
Mary met Gary, got
married and they have now been married
for more than 25 years!
Wow! They were
involved in showing Quarter Horses for
several years and Gary still currently
gives lessons and helps people with
horse related problems.
Mary worked at
Equine Emporium from 1998- 2012
and has brought that valuable
experience and her knowledge of horses
to The Trading Post.
