Ironwood Farm

Ironwood Farm Ironwood Farm is the largest Fjord breeding and consignment sales farm in Virginia. Ironwood Farm has been serving the equestrian community since 1998.

We specialize in breeding, training and selling Norwegian Fjord horses, private boarding and English riding lessons. We stand the Fjord stallion, Ironwood Blitzen, S1, G1, V, E. Our Fjords actively compete in dressage, eventing, driving and draft. Our farm is located in northern Culpeper County between the towns of Warrenton and Culpeper. We are about an hour’s drive from Northern VA. Our property encompasses nearly 132 acres of rolling hills, woods and streams.

The Farm Tour is just around the corner. Come join us for riding and driving demos at 11 a,m, and 1 p.m. We will have lots of information on Norwegian Fjord Horses including buttons and coloring pages. This year is special because our neighbors Persimmons Hollow Farm is joining us with their fabulous products from their apiary. There will also be some bee education (but no bees!) present. And on Sunday, we will have the food truck Tha Muncheez on site -- awesome food! It will be fun and visiting is free. Come join us!

Look familiar? We decided to see what those mosaic like "art" pieces look like IRL. We sent the photo we use as the header for this page for the mother and daughter duo, Serina and Lupin, They had both earned NFHR Medallions of Quality at an evaluation. Both mares are buried on our farm. We are opening a B&B, the Ironwood Inn, and we have named the rooms after several of our founding mares. This piece of art will be dlsplayed in the hallway their adjoining rooms share.

Erika Linnea (NFHR Reg. #09-6150-M) is a 17-year-old Norwegian Fjord mare who is retiring from breeding and looking for the next chapter of her life. 17 is not old for a Fjord.

If you're searching for a safe, well-trained, steady horse that just about anyone can ride, Linnea deserves a look.

She has spent time in lesson programs, enjoys children, and is the kind of mare who is the same whether she's ridden every day or only occasionally. Quiet, sensible, and willing, she takes care of her rider and is happy to do whatever is asked of her. Good with kids and adults/

14.1 hands
Excellent ground manners
Great with kids and adults
Trail and pleasure horse skills
Schooling show experience
NFHR Evaluated
Barefoot
Up to date on vaccinations and deworming
Easy keeper and in excellent health

I am acting as the owner's agent and know this mare well. My stallion is her sire, and she inherited his exceptional work ethic and kind disposition. Her owner has made the difficult decision to step back from Fjord ownership, so Linnea is simply looking for a loving new home where she can continue to be enjoyed.

This is not a project horse. She is a finished, dependable partner who is ready to give her next owner years of enjoyable riding and companionship.

Horses like Linnea don't come along every day. If you're looking for a trustworthy trail companion, family horse, or pleasure mount, she could be exactly what you've been waiting for.

Message me for additional information and photos. PPEs welcome. Please, no leases or trials. Located in Rixeyville, VA. $12K firm.

Exciting to have another Fjord breeder offer an opportunity for an assessment at her farm! Thank you, Jill Kosek!

Here is one of the informational handouts we distribute at the Form to Function clinic this weekend. The clinic was a HUGE success and we are working on the photos and videos. Please note that the handout was for general information purposes and not intended to a complete and authoritative depiction of Fjord Horse conformation, breed angles or the breed standard. It is an educational aid.

I have been saying all along that Eastra would have her foal for the Wayne Hipsley clinic. She would be early but why not get our attention while we were running around prepping the other Fjords for the clinic. So welcome a new c**t, Bravo's third offspring this year. Eastra and her son are doing fine. They will watch the Wayne Hipsley clinic with avid interest.
