Stable Owners Gain Comfort and Productivity With Bobcat Compact Tractor

Posted on April 27, 2020

After replacing their old compact tractor, Joe and Jodi D’Amico found that a new Bobcat CT2040 delivers superior turning capabilities and comfort. Read their story below or watch the video to learn how their compact tractor is helping them take on the work of their acreage and horse stables business. 

Horses are at the top of the animal kingdom in Jodi D’Amico’s eyes. 

“I try to be around every animal possible; I used to even work as a zookeeper,” Jodi says. “But I’ve always loved horses. My parents are both from right outside New York City. They thought I was crazy when I was a kid and was like, ‘I want a horse, I want a horse, I want a horse.’” 

As a 13-year-old, Jodi worked a part-time job so she could afford to board that horse. Today, she and her husband, Joe, own and operate D’Amico Stables and Earthworks, launched in 2009, where they board seven horses belonging to like-minded horse enthusiasts, in addition to four horses of their own. 

“It’s a very therapeutic job,” she says. “Before, I hated leaving my daughter every day to work in a hospital. It was torture being indoors, so I started the stables as a way to be with my kids, work outside and enjoy my job.”
