The Armitage Story

Story

Armitage Farm is a privately owned, full-scale commercial breeding operation. Every yearling in our consignment is proudly bred, raised and prepared by Armitage Farm. Our entire crop is offered exclusively through public auction, with each horse brought to market to be sold—not merely appraised.

Dale Holly at Armitage Farm
Dale Holly

Our leadership brings over 85 years of combined experience in raising quality horses. The farm itself was originally designed and developed by Shadwell Farm, resulting in facilities that are not only highly functional but also as thoughtfully constructed as they are aesthetically pleasing.

Tim Hayes at Armitage Farm

The fertility of our soil, the gentle roll of the land, and the density and quality of our pastures are all critical to developing the strong bone and muscle essential for young horses.
