Welcome to
Westwood Farms. We are a family owned and operated
farm located in scenic Madison County, Virginia. We breed and sell
Plantation Walking Horses and Kentucky Mountain Saddle Horses.
What is a Plantation Walking Horse?
Our farm is
situated on 340 acres bordered on two sides by the Rapidan River. From the
top story of our
home, we can look out over where seven generations of our family have
owned land (Old Rag Mountain in the Shenandoah National Park and nearby
Thoroughfare Mountain).
Our last foal of the year has arrived! Golden Gambler and
Winning Touch welcomed another big, beautiful buckskin filly on 6-4-2009. See
"Gambler's

Our first foal of the year has arrived! Golden Gambler and
Gen's Executive Lady welcomed a big, beautiful buckskin filly on
5-31-2009. See Unnamed.

Gambler's first foal of the year has arrived! Congratulations
Jean and Terry of Ohio on the arrival of
Gambler's Royal Elegance, a beautiful bay filly out of their sweet
mare, Royal Passion!
Our focus is on breeding
naturally gaited, intelligent, golden horses with unparalleled
beauty and versatility. We believe in sound, natural horses and for the
most part, our horses are never even shod. They perform their gaits naturally and without the use of artificial
"training" devices.
We
know that only superior mares produce superior
foals. That is why we have very
carefully hand selected a few top quality mares. Many of our mares
are double and triple registered with TWHBEA, KMSHA, and RHBAA.
