Townsend is a small town in New Castle County in northern Delaware, in the flat agricultural plain between the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal and the Maryland state line. Delaware's equestrian community is small relative to the surrounding states but well-connected—Townsend's position near the Pennsylvania and Maryland borders gives it access to the broader Mid-Atlantic horse community while maintaining a distinctly Delmarva agricultural character.
Hunter/jumper and eventing reflect the English discipline tradition of the Mid-Atlantic, and full care boarding with lesson programs serves a community of horse owners connected to the competitive circuits of Delaware, Maryland, and Pennsylvania. Townsend's position on US-13, the historic coastal highway, gives it practical accessibility for haulers and owners moving through the northern Delmarva Peninsula.
