MLive: Paw Paw's Model Farm celebrates 35 years

Denise Blakely overcame a fear of horses to go on to teach riding lessons. Blakely told MLive she has taught about 800 students over the years, with some now bringing their children to her for riding lessons. On Sept. 15 and 16, Blakely is hosting an open house to mark the 35h anniversary of the farm. All are welcome, she said. Horse professionals, such as dentists and veterinarians, will be there, and the event will include raffle drawings for free riding lessons and Model Farm sweatshirts, a tack sale and refreshments.
