Peppadew Farm

Our Little Slice of Heaven

Peppadew Farm is a happy little place on the edge of the Oregon Coastal Range near Monmouth

Ducks — Animals

We have a great assortment of heritage birds including many breeds of chickens, and some wonderful heritage breed ducks. All are raised in a cage free environment and wander the orchard and garden. Many of our horses have been rescued from the kill pen to live out their lives with us.

Venue / Glamping

The property is a good mix of forest and pasture with a creek running down one side. For guests we have outdoor showers, a 30 foot round pen for equine visitors and numerous camp sites. The center piece is our stage area.

Clumber with Puppies.jpg — Clumbers

We love our dogs and have been clumber spaniel breeders for many years. Our dogs take top honors in the ring and our girls are natural hunters. We have a separate site dedicated to the clumbers and the image will link you to it.

Horses

We Love our Equine Family Members Too

Through the years both Sarah and I have worked at saving as many horses as we can from an early death from a kill buyer. Onsite we have two off track thoroughbreds, one of which was actually bought off a kill buyer trailer. We have a Paint, an Arab-Quarter horse (Quarrab) mix, a polish Arab and a mustang.

Heritage Birds

Our Fair Feathered Friends

We continue to add additional heritage breeds of birds in an effort to preserve and bolster the numbers of these historic farm companions. Breeds include Saxony ducks, Swedish Blue, Khaki, Welch Harlequin Ducks, Bronze Turkeys, Bourbon red turkeys and more added each year.

We will be adding several breeds of heritage livestock to the mix in the next few years. Principle among these will be Scottish Highland cattle.

Glamping / Venue

We have some options for your experience

We have spots along the creek near the barn and some even more in the woods near the top of the property. There is a cedar outdoor shower with exterior sink for your comfort. Paths are well lit and last year we added a stage.

Kids enjoying the horses in the round pen

We have a 30 foot round pen available, not to mention miles of logging roads / trails for equine guests.

Manuals & Such

I have collected and image corrected manuals and blue prints that came with our boat. I am the third owner and all three were military men so we saved everything associated with anything having to do with the boat. I view the image correction as practice and I really hope that other O’Day owners can benefit. I will admit that they are not perfect, you reach a point of diminishing returns in repair work with Photoshop®.

Rehabbing a 40
year old

The 40 year old is in fact the boat, Sarah and I are bit past that mark, I was in high school when this girl came into being. So this is a chronicle and collection of successes and failures in the process of rehabilitation.
