Because of the governmental request to stop large gatherings and concerns over the spread of the coronavirus in Johnson County, our April events have been postponed. That means the East Frisian Tea Party and the Huebinger Lecture are suspended until further notice. I'll continue to post updates as we have them. Till then, stay safe out there, everyone!

You're all correct! Although the other two options are fun, the answer is "B," the American Cream. According to the Livestock Conservancy, the American Cream was developed from one mare in the early 1900s who consistently birthed cream foals. The American Cream has a low population that was endangered further by the Great Depression and the mechanization of farming. The breed saw a small revival in the 80s when it was confirmed by a geneticist that the horse is a "distinct population" of horse breed. If you're interested, visit livestockconservancy.org/index.php/heritage/internal/americancream to learn more. The population sits today at about 250 horses.
