The historic HomeFarm at Undermountain, an equestrian center, working farm, and home for rescue animals, is seeking help from the town for urgent renovations at the horse farm dating back to 1902.

Today, HomeFarm at Undermountain has 24 horses and ponies and serves as home for 10 privately owned horses boarded there. “Four of our horses came with the farm,” explains Pestana, giving a tour of the newly refurbished stables. “The remaining 21 are rescue horses we’ve rehabilitated.”

Four young goats rescued from Antimony Brewing in Lenox after a treacherous highway crossing late Monday evening spent the night at HomeFarm at Undermountain.

HomeFarm Undermountain is poised to receive $189,750 for restoration of the farm's 1902 three-level stables and dairy barn. The funding, which would be a major boost for the historical preservation project, has been recommended by the town's Community Preservation Committee.
