Blackhorse farms is a family
run farm located in the Fraser Valley in
BC. Our farm is something we've been
longing to do for quite some time, but never
really had the guts to follow through until last
summer. My close, family friend, Allison
Carpenter from Mythic
Friesians introduced us to the majestic
beauty of the Friesian horse and although being
fairly new to the horse world, I knew I had to
have one.
I found the mare I wanted
through Rick Simonetti from friesians4usa.com.
Emke W was imported from Holland and was in foal
to Ait 410. At first I thought, ok, I'll
sell the foal to recover back some of my costs
from the purchase of the mare...well, anyone
with horses will tell you that that it is not a profitable
business. Once Emke had her
foal, I was hooked! the filly was the
cutest thing I had ever seen and I wanted to
keep her for myself.
I do not have 30 Ster mares
nor am I interested in owning such. I have
Emke, a 3rd Premium FPS studbook registered mare
who is the sweetest, gentlest girl with a
stunning trot. She appears to pass on
these qualities to her offspring.
We live and work on 10 acres
of lush pasture
Coming soon
