Slackwater Farm

Slackwater Farm Small farm in Southern Maryland specializing in quality, kid-friendly Welsh ponies and cobs, livestock guardian dogs and goats.

Slackwater Farm is a small, family-run farm in Southern Maryland that focuses on breeding quality chickens, goats and rabbits that are ideal for families with children that want to embark on a similar small farm adventure. We start with pedigreed/registered broodstock or better (none of our foundation animals are only pet quality). Our animals are chosen for their size, temperament, and functional

ity (meat, eggs, milk, etc - except for the rabbits - they're just fun, and not overly useful!), and are backyard friendly (check your local zoning restrictions for livestock!). If you're looking for a family pet, or want to produce some milk, meat or eggs for your own family, contact us to figure out how best to start!

So much movement over the past few months!

Slackwater Ivy League (Wynnbrook Coup D'Etat x Loafers Lodge Dreams of Honey, 2021) left yesterday, headed to Virginia to be a little girl's dream pony :)

Slackwater Mirror Image (pending) (*Lonwind Swagger x Ashland Wynsome, 2025), has been sold and will stay in Massachusetts at Ashland Welsh, with plans to ride and drive someday.

Slackwater Red Sky at Night (Dandardel Helios x Ashland Welsh Poppy, 2023) headed south to become his owner's next driving partner.

We are looking forward to following all of our babies as they grow up!

Mornings on the farm.

The more we work with this pony, the more certain I am that we have a cute future packer on our hands.

She has experience in leadline and W/T, and is now learning new skills. Today, a junior who has never ridden her took her out into our riding field and put her through the paces, including over her first jumps! Not bad for a 4yo!

Low 5s until she starts showing!

Thank you .eq for the edit!

Colonial Classic is a wrap! Sasha and Ashland Juliet ribboned in all of their classes and finished 11th out of 24 in the 2' modified hunter - against a lot of tall, bay TBs! Such a fantastic comeback from where she was two years ago following her neck surgery!
