Welcome to our Cedar Wind Farm Equestrian Center and home to the Oxford Chapter of the Southern Run Pony Club. Our farm is our home. Bob and Evie Tumlin moved to Oxford in 2003. Our interests and occupations have been in aviation and horses for many years. Bob is a ham radio operator and enjoys transmitting in Morris Code .
We have a grass landing strip in the back of the farm and welcome aviator friends who fly in from time to time. Bob spent many years rebuilding old Stearman aircraft and showing them at Oshkosh and in FL at Sun and Fun air shows. He recently rebuilt an antique helicoptor and won with it at Oshkosh. He still helps maintain the helicopters and trains pilots for the Limestone Co. Sheriff's Department in Alabama. His latest toys are Antique Allis Chalmers tractors.
Our horse operation includes Children and Adults lessons on their horses or on our school horses and ponies.
Evie's background includes competing with open jumpers, eventing and combined training through advanced, and many years competing and training horses through the FEI levels in dressage. She holds the USDF Bronze and Silver Medals. She is an "L" judge graduate from USDF and has held USDF regional coordinator positions for Instructor/Trainers and for Adult Education for the past 12 years.
Evie has trained students from the beginning who progressed to the North American Junior Young Riders programs in both Eventing and Dressage.
The latest project here at CWF is the construction of a schooling cross country course. It is a work in progress but already has ditches and banks.
We run several schooling shows each year. They are primarily dressage shows but we are adding Combined Tests to several of these shows this year.
Please enjoy our web site and contact us if we can answer questions for you or be of service.

WELCOME TO CEDAR WIND FARM
Cedar Wind Farm is a facility that supports many different equestrian activities. Our primary focus is Dressage. We are a boarding, teaching and a training facility
We have a fairly large program for children as well as adults to learn the basics about horsemanship as well as riding. We start children at age 8 and many stay through high school. Some find their own mounts and others ride the available school horses throughout their training. We start adults when ever they want to start!! The Rowan Oaks Riders Pony Club started at our barn. It now resides in Byhalia, MS. CWF is proud to be aligned with and now a chapter of Southern Run Pony Club. This club will have 3 bases. One in Hernando, MS with Meredith Wilks as instructor and one in Oxford with Evie Tumlin as instructor and the third in Tupelo with Danielle Durette as trainer. We hope to provide support to one another with frequent exchanges of activities and information. CWF holds adult classes twice a week in the evenings and some weekends. Private lessons are also always available. We have several school masters through the FEI Dressage levels and others that are just good basic school mounts. Our Summer Adult Dressage Camp has become very popular. In mid June we host about 18 adult Dressage enthusiasts who come from several states around. We have 4 instructors, each with particular focus. Pilates is a big part of the camp. Riders are lunged privately each day and work in groups as well as privately with each instructor. Through the year we hold several open Dressage Schooling Shows with “L” graduate or above judges. Twice a year we include a combined test with these schooling shows. One will be Dressage and Jumping and the other Dressage and Cross Country through Novice. They are a wonderful opportunity for our riders to get inexpensive ring and CT experience. We also hold a one day USDF/USEF Recognized Dressage show here in October. Our farm is on 113 acres. Boarders and students can ride in the woods or in the hay fields and on the 2650 ft grass runway . We are slowly building x-country jumps and we have a full set of stadium jumps for boarders to use and to use in the lessons.

Top horse at the inspection!!
Always contact the management if the weather seems questionable. Footing for Dressage is excellant but the footing for the jump course and cross country are good but un-proven and un-tested so we may be overly cautious this first year.
