DID YOU KNOW?
Katie Barkhouse, Education Manager and Entrepreneur
Katie Barkhouse, DoM Education Manager and Postgraduate Education Coordinator, is very proud of her side hustle. She started Iron Pony Crochet in 2016 as a hobby. It has since grown into a small business located in Upper Rawdon, East Hants on the new Barkhouse family farm.

Katie designs and produces all of her own pieces – everything from hats, scarves, blankets and leather wrap bracelets but is most known for custom crochet ponies/unicorns and farm animals! She specializes in custom ponies to match real life pets.

When asked if we could add the bit about 5000 chickens, couple pigs, roosters, bear, coyote, racoons, and deer? She said, absolutely...we are basically the modern ‘Green Acres’ hahaha.
