Meet the Band
Harmony Beverage Donkeys was established in 2026 by Lydia Friel and her husband, Josh — and stars our two beloved donkeys, Banjo and Fiddle. Adopted from Fabled Farm Rescue and Sanctuary in Christiana, Tennessee, the boys made the journey west to begin their new lives in the Pacific Northwest.
From Rescue to the Spotlight
Banjo and Fiddle are people-oriented through and through, and they’ve taken to the beverage burro service like pros. At your event, they’ll carry your provided drinks, party favors, candy — whatever you’d like to offer your guests — in their packsaddle boxes, greeting everyone with their gentle spirits along the way.
We’re also happy to bring the donkeys out for photoshoot opportunities — engagement sessions, family photos, holiday cards, you name it.
Harmony Beverage Donkeys offers personalized service for your event, and we make sure every minute is handled with care — the donkeys are even happy to match colors or decorations to your theme. Our mission is to create a point of connection for your guests and to share the joy our donkeys bring to others. We want to help make your event unforgettable.
The Stars of the Show
Banjo
Banjo is the outgoing half of the duo — first to the fence, first to say hello, and never one to turn down a carrot. He’s a natural in a crowd and has a knack for finding the guest with the best snacks. [Swap in Banjo’s real personality and story!]
Fiddle
Fiddle is the gentle soul of the pair — patient, calm, and content to soak up all the scratches your guests can offer. He’s a favorite of little ones and camera lenses alike. [Swap in Fiddle’s real personality and story!]
Lydia & Josh
Behind every great band is a good crew. Lydia and Josh handle every event personally — from logistics and setup to making sure every guest feels comfortable meeting the donkeys.
