Best of America by Horseback review
by Valley Meadow Farms Trails Getaway, Hancock, Maryland
"When Best Of America By Horseback came to our family farm, Valley Meadow Farms Trails Getaway, to do a feature for their program, it turned out to be one of the very best experiences of my life. I have been able to see the Lord orchestrate it all from the very beginning which has been an awesome blessing that I share every time an opportunity presents itself.
Del Shields was wonderful to work with as he customized the whole show to accommodate and capture the essence of the experience our guests enjoy at this special place. Shevawn Shields and Pat Seay are so gifted in their artistry of photography, and they shared the beauty, peace and tranquility of the landscape so wonderfully. It was special, too, because Tom Seay, the executive producer who began the show, was also able to be a part.
The episode about our farm has turned out to be a wonderful tool on our website. The video allows potential guests to get a glimpse of the farm, which allows them to feel excited and at ease about making a reservation. We have even had guests, who have become part of our “farm family”, share that they have watched the show repeatedly because it gives them such a “good, peaceful feeling.”
​
I highly recommend Best Of America By Horseback to everyone associated with horses~~whether you own a horse trail riding venue and are thinking of having them visit your property, or if you are a vendor with a product to advertise, or if you are just a fellow horse lover! You will fully enjoy their show, as they are an organization that exemplifies the highest character and integrity, and will give their very best to help you have a positive experience."
