Under the stewardship of Joseph & Wendy DiPietro, our 50-acre haven, formerly known as Donida Farm, will undergo a remarkable transformation into a premier venue that celebrates both nature’s beauty and timeless elegance, while still offering the expansive Arena’s stalls and equestrian center to our equine community.
With a rich heritage in thoroughbred racing and horse dressage spanning nearly five decades, Bello Acres is deeply rooted in a commitment to excellence. “Refinement” is Wendy’s signature mark. She brings her passion for hospitality and dedication to exceeding expectations to every aspect of Bello Acres.
