Our Miniature Horse Farm in Lakes Region, NH is FOR SALE- asking $339,000. All reasonable offers considered and Lease/Rent to Own Option Available!!
Updated 7/3/10 **I have all minis, mini leather & nylon harnesses & wooden cart available FOR SALE. Email me for inquires.
See video & photos on our Facebook page! Just look me up under 'Melinda Ferreira' and send me a friend request! We have reduced our herd & currently have seven. Thank you to those that have purchased our much loved horses.
Our hazel eyed mini appy herd sire, Sulphuras Legacy in Red, is now a wonderful professionally trained cart gelding. The thrown has been passed onto our selectively bred FEWSPOT APPALOOSA STUD COLT with no solids in his background to my knowledge. Fewspots are thought to produce the highest percentage of most colorful appaloosa patterns and we look forward to his first foals in Spring of 2011! Cogswell Mountain Miniature Horse Farm started in 2004 and is centrally located in the beautiful Lakes Region of New Hampshire; just 20min. north of Concord. Our planned move to the NH seacoast has fallen through, but we have found a wonderful area in Gilford, NH so we are once again looking to sell our 6+ acres here. It has been a back and forth decision, but we are now on the market in MLS for Gilmanton Iron Works, NH. Please contact us at 603-387-9170 for details!!
About Miniature Horses
Miniature horses are a perfect way to introduce young children to equines. They are much less expensive to purchase and maintain as well as less intimidating to children (and perhaps their parents too!) Did you know:
- Larger Minis can be ridden by children up to 60lbs
- They can also drive a cart with an adult passenger!
- Minis need much less room than their bigger cousins both stable and pasture wise.
- Please click on the links in this website to learn more about miniature horses and their needs. And see you soon!
