A Bit About Christina
I’ve always appreciated the beauty of horses, but it wasn’t until I moved to the countryside with my three young children that I truly discovered my passion for them. Living surrounded by nature and these magnificent creatures opened my eyes to their grace, spirit and healing abilities.
In 2009, started our journey in horse boarding, and it was an exciting year when one of our boarders welcomed a foal born right at our farm. This special moment started it all....the love of this breed and the desire to share the horses with as many people as we can. I fell in love with Gypsy Mares and foals.
Within the year I bought my first gypsy horse, I quickly discovered the joys of riding and the thrill of caring for a growing herd. Each horse brought its own unique personality and charm, making every ride an adventure. My journey has not only deepened my love for these incredible animals but also taught me invaluable lessons in patience and connection.
Somewhere, I blinked, and all these years have past and I have enjoyed every minute in the barn, surrounded with my barn family and all of our horses. I would race home after a hard day as a hospice nurse to spend a few minutes soaking up the calmness & beauty of the horses.

A Bit About Emma
Emma's journey began at 3 years old when her family moved to a farm in Ida Michigan. Later, the farm is known as Serenity Farm Gypsy Horses & Equestrian Center. This is where her love for these horses blossomed.
By the age of six, she was already showing horses, demonstrating her passion and talent. She also found herself with all the mares when foaling and helping with the foals.
With her mother's guidance, Emma saddled her first Gypsy at just eight years old, marking the start of an incredible equestrian journey. That is her first Gypsy Daezy Mae.
Now, she’s working with Cielo, a stunning 15-hand Silver Dapple Gypsy Gelding, as she continues to share her knowledge by coaching 4H and local equestrian teams.
Emma has a great eye for horses and is extremely talented with a camera. She joined PGVC in Jan 2026 and she is excited to help others find their dream horse.
