Hello Listers! Especially with draft horses that work. 
   
   Needed: leather working team (pair) harnesses for a pair of tall Belgians, 
and  a pair of American Creams (about Suffolk Punch sized).  
   
  These are for the horses at The Farm School, in North Orange, MA, a 
501-(c)-(3) nonprofit, a working farm where everything is done with as few 
modern conveniences as possible.  These horses haul logs and plow fields.  Over 
1,700 urban school children come each year for a three day two night program to 
learn and take part in all the farm work and activities.  There is also a six 
month apprentice program for adults.  
   
  Their current harness is pretty ratty; one is held together with nylon cord 
(not a good thing!!).
   
  If you have, or know anyone who has, good, used, safe harness hanging around 
their stables/barns, the Farm School will give an excellent tax deduction for 
your donating harness to the school.  Their website is 
http://www.farmschool.org . Check out the Belgian, Mack, who still works full 
days at age 28!   The horseman is Roy Nilson (he's the one to talk to), 
roy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx, and please copy to me just in case, takacde@xxxxxxxxxx   
They could also use a good four horse stock trailer--anyone?    Thank you, 
Althea Bramhall, pony-grammy, just helping out.
