About Us
Diane & Andy Nedrow
Diane (that’d be me) and Andy Nedrow (who’d be my husband), along with 8 mini donkeys and 2 mini mules make up the crew at Brayhope Farm. We’re a recently formed 501-c3 farm located in Upstate New York (specifically Phoenix in Oswego County). Our goal for those that participate in a visit to the farm is to instill the calming, peaceful and memorable experience that these tiny equines bring to people in our somewhat difficult and complex world of today. Visits are free of charge.
Why? I had to reach deep within myself to pull my “why” up and put it into words. My relationship with animals goes way back to when I was very young. My horse, Dawn, was very special to me. As soon as school was over, I’d be saddling her up and meeting with other horse neighbors to trail ride together. My golden retriever, Bridget, was there for me when I needed someone to talk to during the ever so common tumultuous teenage years. We’d take a walk to the river where she would happily retrieve sticks from the water while creating a sense of calm for me at the same time. The power of the human/animal bond is real and humbling.
