Today we can see Maura's commitment to providing the best care for our horses in everything she does at the barn.
Steve Reeve
Owner
Maura and Stephen met in 1985, and went on to create the Reevedale we know today. In 2009, Stephen completed the intricate construction of our 14 stall barn and indoor arena. It wouldn't be Reevedale Farm without Stephen! Today you can see Stephen stacking hay, fixing fences and lights, clearing trails and helping us all with barn projects. His hard work definitely does not go unnoticed! Stephen is also owner-operator of S.T. Reeve Painting and Construction INC.
