I am looking for information about this rescue operation, especially
the location and if anyone has had dealings with the owner, Patti?
There are two records that show up in WI Public records for her, the most recent from 2008. http://wcca.wicourts.gov/caseDetails.do;jsessionid=4F150F53C38E182CD2B2B2475D955DB1.render6?caseNo=2008CV002032&countyNo=30&cacheId=14DC22D618DF2888F36033DE2F8F6A99&recordCount=2&offset=0
She’s been evicted about a month ago. Was located at 27035 122nd St, Trevor, Wisconsin.
If you think it is ok for a rescue to have:
Six horses living outside through the last two winters with no shelter at all, not even a tree, but would not adopt them.
Hooves not trimmed in 6-8 months.
Manure in stalls 3 feet deep (I took pictures of this, with mushrooms growing out of the pile)
Horses in the barn not let out of stalls for months at a time
I am a bit biased, she owes me money too.
But, all of this is ‘legal’ in Wisconsin, as long as you have a bucket of water and a bale of moldy hay.

What are you waiting for?
Unless you can afford to rescue these horses yourself, as you are currently doing,get her out of there. It sounds like you aren’t going to see any money.
Have any of the horses been placed since she moved them to your farm? They should at the very least be given away.

I have, she came to me thru her realtor and told me that she was being evicted from the property that she was leasing because the owner were foreclosing (trevor) I let her move 39 horses into my barn (rescue) because she told me she was waiting to close on a new place that she/Green Gate Rescue on July 7, and that she would pay myself and husband 100 per horse for that month once she closed on the new home sale priced at$4,000,000.00. She moved in my place on May 12 and is still. I have yet to see one dime from her and I just found out thru county records that she was the one that foreclosed in the trevor address under her mother’s name. I love these animals and do not want to kick her out but I do not know what to do, confront her or?[/QUOTE]
I think it is pretty safe to say that she has abandoned these horses. Call Animal Control and your local police department…unless you like being the proud new owner of 39 horses.

Since the horses are at your place, here is what you can do. Call HARPS or HAHS or the county sherriff, explain the situation and ask them to send an investigator out to remove the horses. I could not do this when she was in Trevor since they would be trespassing with no probable cause but it is your property so you can.
Trying to get boarders will not work. Would you board your horse where there are 39 horses with no wormers, no shots and hooves that are not trimmed? Where they sometimes do not get fed (and she will not feed boarder horses if she can not feed her own)? No one is going to sell her hay except for cash up front, winter is coming. What will you do when her horses get sick, like if strangles or flu runs through the barn, can you afford the vet bill or can you stand to watch the horses die from disease or starve?
cant believe im reading this
im her nephew
don’t trust her for anything
caused her mother to lose her house
while she sat back and did nothing
lied to numerous people and owes everyone money
told me oprah was doing a story on her rescue
don’t involve yourself with her
she will burn you
Even more amazing than what I am reading is how all these newbies suddenly found this board and this thread.
But, a $4,000,000 dollar farm, dam, what have I done wrong. hahahahaha
If anything of this thread is true, I sure do feel for the lady who is now the BO of a woman with 39 rescues.

I agree. Very strange.
I looked up GreenGate as welll. There are way too many of them. One said they closed in Dec. 09. Some are still going. I was pretty sure I found info on the right one but it was just a blog about a horse rescued.
Cant tell if there is anything to this thread or not but the OP is the only person on this thread that seems to have been around for a while.

Try Google search- ‘Green Gate Simpkins’ and this thread comes up. She is the one that was on television (see the one ‘Rescued horse shows spirit to live’ from WKOW TV27. And read the comments.)
You may wonder why there are people that go out of their way to warn others about this person. It is not just because she owes most of us money but because she violated our trust. What she did takes away from legitimate rescues.
So yes, we watch the internet for her name to turn up so that we can keep others from suffering this same fate. Unfortunately for Xenad we were too late.
But you can see- look at Wayside’s post. We did not ‘make up’ public records of this legal judgement. Call Bristol Vet and ask them.
Drove by her place in Wisconsin. My oh my. Cannot believe the deplorable conditions…not just the horses but the living quarters for them. Horrific!! This must be stopped!
thank you all for your concerns. Keep spreading the word about this woman. what a shame!
Do you still have these pictures?
It seems that I just met your aunt! Would you be willing to talk to me?
ouch!
She only has 4 left on my property now. They should leave today. I am so sorry I did not find this until after she was here. Was asked by a friend to help her out until she closed and got new fencing up on new place. 2 months turned into 14 months of a nightmare!! She lies about everything, so anyone meeting this woman, trust me, she will cause so much heart ache for you. The poor horses are only part of her victims.
Wow. A greenie explosion.
