**Welcome!**
 Equine Gatherings is located in beautiful downtown Metamora. Make us a destination! Come visit our store for your equine equipment, supplies, clothing, boots, tack, gifts and books.
Our name was chosen carefully. "Gatherings" refers not only to our collection of equine related products but also to our mission to give horse lovers a place to gather. One room in the store is devoted to just that. Come help yourself to a cup of coffee while you read the bulletin boards to see what's up. Relax on the sofa and read a magazine or watch a training video. Maybe you'll come just to see who else is hanging out!
