Spirit Horse Farm Spring

 

We have had so many great guests come to visit so far this spring. And many friends returning back for second, third, and even fourth visits! Like the doves coming back from from their wayward meanderings, our guests and friends always bring an unexpected joy to the farm!

Dovecot is Almost Completed at Spirit Horse Farm

Dovecot is Almost Completed at Spirit Horse Farm

The dovecot is almost done and the doves arrive on Wednesday! I can’t wait to watch them circling over the farm. We have two peacocks looking for a new home, and tomorrow we go meet Sonny, a Tennessee Walking Horse with a great presence. He might be perfect!

The guests are so quiet tonight, but we can see their shadows (20 or so) against the garden walls in the flickering light of their wood fires. The weather here is perfectly cool, and the outdoor fireplaces are more popular than even the shimmering lights from the pool! June in New England can sometimes be like this, but in a few short weeks, the pool will definitely be the popular night spot at Spirit Horse.

White Dove Releases

White Dove Releases for Weddings, Funerals and Special Memorial Events

White Doves have throughout the ages have symbolized peace, love, joy, and the hope of a new beginning. How befitting, then, that a dove release be included in any celebration of life . . . whether it be wedding doves, a funeral, a memorial service, a christening, a confirmation, a bar mitzvah, an anniversary, a birthday, a church dedication or a new business venture . . . the possibilities are endless. Your vision is our palette, and our goal is to create a flawless dove release, custom- made . . . especially for you.

Whatever your celebration might be, we can enhance the ambiance of the occasion with the breathtaking sights and sounds of a ceremonial white dove release. The gentle rustle of feathers and the unforgettable vision of pristine white doves soaring towards the heavens in winged flight create a symbolic tribute to your special day and a magical moment in time for all who share in it.

We can arrange a dove release for you, or as a special gift from you, in the Tri State Area, Ct, NY, and NJ. The gift of snow white doves is a unique, thoughtful alternative to flowers. In lieu of flowers, send a dove release!

The release birds are doves, which are specially trained and conditioned for   their mission. After circling to get their directional bearing, they will journey to their loft where they are cared for and loved.

  • We do not release our birds indoors or near power lines.
  • We do not provide birds for self release. An experienced coordinator accompanies our birds to each event.
  • Our goal is to enhance your celebration with a flawless release and to assure a safe flight home for our doves.

 Doves have no homing abilities and will not survive in the wild.
We do not release the birds indoors, at night, or in inclement weather.

  • The Spirit Horse Farm places the health and safety of our doves first and foremost. For this reason, we adhere to a humane release policy with strict provisions to protect our birds from dangerous circumstances.
  • We maintain only properly banded, healthy, white racing pigeons who are trained to return home when released.
  • We will not release our birds in inclement weather including thunderstorms, fog, high winds and snow. A total refund of monies shall be afforded should inclement weather prevail and result in a cancellation.
  • We do not release our birds at night or within one hour of sunset.
  • We do not release our birds indoors or near power lines.
  • We do not provide birds for self release. An experienced coordinator accompanies our birds to each event.
  • Our goal is to enhance your celebration with a flawless release and to assure a safe flight home for our doves.
    • The Spirit Dove Release  A single snow white dove is released in a symbolic tribute to your loved one at the conclusion of the gravesite or memorial service. Usually, the dove is released from the hand of a family member, or, if you prefer, directly from a basket. People have expressed how comforting it feels to release the dove, how it opens up the grieving process, and how it allows them to say a final farewell and let go. When released, the dove will usually fly directly into the sky, and when he has his bearings, return home.
    • The Trinity Release Three doves symbolizing the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are released, followed momentarily by a single dove representing the spirit of your loved one. The single dove will usually join the three doves in formation, and they will fly home together.
    • The Final Journey Home  A single dove is presented to a family member to release. Momentarily, a flock of ten white doves are set free to join the single dove in flight. The single dove signifies the soul of the departed, and the flock symbolizes the spirits of those loved ones who have passed before, welcoming and showing the departed soul the way home. As the single dove soars with his flock of angels and ascends into the heavens on his final journey home, you will experience a truly touching conclusion to your loved ones service.
    • The Dove Companion  A snow white dove in a beautiful cage is placed near your loved one during visitation.
