Lost World Farm is owned by Leo and Linda Wanstreet. It is a small private farm with 4 regular stalls, an indoor arena, and several paddocks. Situated in Michigan's first designated "Horse Community" of Highland Township, the farm includes ten acres of rolling hills with an abundance of trees that the horses really appreciate on hot summer days. The name "Lost World Farm" came from Linda's feeling of existing in another time when at home watching the horses graze and romp, as well as all the other wildlife that claim part of the farm as home during various times of the year.

From 2004 thru 2006 Linda learned and competed with the Dutch WB gelding Bim Bambino, a Grand Prix Schoolmaster. Earning her bronze medal in 2005 with scores from Patrick in 1st and 2nd level and Bim Bam in 3rd level, and her silver medal in 2006 with scores in 4th level and Prix St. Georges on Bim Bam. He went on to a new owner and home in Florida in 2006 and in November 2007 Linda purchased an 8 year old Hanoverian mare with the new show name of Fiora as her new dressage prospect. Fiora is showing lots of potential and the pair showed 1st Level successfully in 2009. They are working on a freestyle with Karen Robinson.

Melissa Wanstreet joined her mother, Linda, in 2006 on the farm to help with the growing herd of young horses. Melissa started riding in the hunter ring and was Adult Amateur Reserve Champion in Michigan her first year competing. She followed that by attending Findley University in Ohio majoring in Equestrian Studies and competing in hunters and jumpers in Ohio and on the East Coast. After being away from the horse business for a few years to have a son and spend time with him, she is eager to get back in the saddle with her new horse, Pulsar, a 2005 Patrick son. In 2010 she will also be assisting in the training and starting of the young horses for our farm as well as young horses owned by others.
