Charlotte Fisher- Barn Manager
Charlotte is an avid reader, explorer, and exotic foods chef. When she is not reading, exploring or cooking, she conducts comparative research of the airspeed velocities of the laden v unladen swallow. It has been said that she is the foremost expert in the field. She spends a moderate amount of time with horses, and has some experience. But her aviary research is much more impressive. This short bio may be periodically updated to included Charlotte's most recent interests or accomplishments.
