Windsong Horse & Carriage started off as a dream and became a reality in 2004.

What's so unique about Windsong Horse & Carriage is that owner and operator Gordon Sturm has made a personal contribution to every aspect of the business, from being involved in adding the finishing touches on the handcrafted fringe top surrey carriage, which was built to replicate an antique; to the training of his horses Big Dan (seen at left with owner, Gord Sturm), Rudy, Napoleon and Duke, who pull the carriage in city street, rural road, in crowded urban areas, and winding through secluded narrow trails.

Windsong Horse & Carriage made its debut in the summer and fall of 2004 at special events around Meaford, Thornbury, and Owen Sound. Events like the Summer Affair Art Fest in Meaford, the Applefest in Thornbury, the Owen Sound Celtic Festival, and, - the icing on the cake - the opening parade of the International Plowing Match where Windsong Horse & Carriage chauffeured MPs from Simcoe, Bruce-Grey and Wellington Counties.

These are just a few of the events which featured the services of Windsong Horse & Carriage. Windsong has had the pleasure of attending numerous parties - for companies, children’s birthdays, and for family reunions. Windsong Horse & Carriage created its unique and romantic Trail Lunch along the Parkhead Trail in Owen Sound and were prominently featured in a Chamber of Commerce tourism video for Meaford, Ontario.

In 2005, some of the events Windsong Horse & Carriage was featured at were the MAUD Antiques Show and the Summer Affair Art Fest in Meaford, the Owen Sound market, and a one-day tour of Casa Loma, Toronto, Ontario.

In late November and into early January, Windsong Horse & Carriage offers tours through the Festival of Northern Lights in Owen Sound, an old-fashioned experience that has been growing in popularity since 2005.

We hope you'll consider Windsong Horse & Carriage for your wedding, your community event, or any time you want to add a nostalgic flair to your life!
