Welcome to the home page of Sanford Farms. We are a family-owned, private Arabian Horse Farm established in 1987 located in the Connecticut River Valley. Bob and Deb are hands on owners, and as such, take pride knowing their horses and family are well taken care of. Our horses are kept on grass pastures 12 months of the year, only exception during show season when the show horses are stabled. As an Arabian Horse Judge and an Arabian horse enthusiast since the age of 7, Deb received her first Half-Arabian at the age of 12. As an amateur trainer, Deb takes great pride in her horses accomplishments but even greater pride knowing that their daughter's, Cristina, riding accomplishments have been from a home base between mother and daughter.
We presently own 9 horses, 2 of which were bred, born, and raised on our farm. Our Junior Western Pleasure horse, August Morn SFA, was shown for the first time under saddle this year and won his junior horse class. He is more commonly known by his nickname, "Leo." Leo's full-brother, Gun Smoke Blu SFA, or "Blu" will be going under saddle in September and plans are for his show ring debut in 2008. Leo and Blu are full-brothers out of WN Ben Samir and Desert Aurora (see below for pics of both).
