Willa's Story

Ma and Pa's Willa Cather

Willa Cather has been a long-time participant in Appalachian Farmstead's show string. She has consistently placed in the top three of her class for many years, including several NMDA Reserve Championships, as well as being selected three times as the ACOSA Reserve National Champion Jennet. Willa has always been a sweetheart with a loving personality, and she has been our 8 year old grandson's spotted show jennet over the past three years. She loves children and adults alike!

Congratulations to Betty Whitford, North Carolina, on her purchase of this sweet jennet!
