Pasture of Love


Marc & "Harpo"
On Saturday, I was surprised to see a horse and old fashioned cart parked on the grassy area next to the parking lot of Greenlife Grocery on Merrimon Avenue. I wandered over to visit the beautiful animal and met his "steward" (as he calls himself) Marc Stuetzel. Marc and his 5 other equestrian com padres live in Candler. He has stewarded the horses for 7 years, but can no longer afford the pasture that they graze on. He is raising funds to keep the pasture and the horses or he says he'll have to take them all on the road with him.


If you are feeling generous this holiday, and want to see these horses keep their pasture, you can contact Marc at just_ride_ranch@yahoo.com. I hope Marc and his animal friends find the help they need. Good luck Marc!
