Sharon & Tim
Marienville, PA is the perfect area to ride a horse. The lush greenery, hills, valleys and streams give variety and beauty to every ride. My husband, Tim, and I purchased the farm in 2007, and I fell in love with the area immediately. If heaven is like riding from our farm, I'm ready to go!
When not on the back of my horse, I am a musician and a former music teacher. I taught music for 29 years, played my flute with various orchestras and bands, and I continue to play my flute whenever I can.
Tim's labor of love for 2 years was the renovation of the 100 year-old craftsman home on this property. The project started as a little remodeling job but quickly turned into a complete makeover. He was able to improve and update without losing the unique character of the craftsman style.
Tim retired from Family Foot Care in 2022 after 35 years at his podiatry practice.
We have two children. Our daughter, Gretchen, has now joined Tim's podiatry practice in Butler, PA. And yes, she has followed in her father's footsteps! Our son, Kyle, and daughter-in-law Marissa, work at Overdrive in Cleveland, OH. It is a software company that manages E books and audio books for individuals and libraries.

Bird dog field trials
Marienville is the home of the Venango Grouse Trial Club which holds grouse-dog competitions in the spring and fall. The dogs are handled on courses in the Allegheny National Forest and are judged on their athletic ability, their style and their success at pointing grouse. Judges, and occasionally members of the gallery, ride on horseback during the 2 to 10 day trials.
