The
Morgans of Little Brook Farm are a result
of 35 years of breeding correct, versatile and
good using horses with sound bodies and
minds for use by the amateur owner.
The emphasis has always been on breeding
sport Morgan horses - breeding horses
who are a pleasure to own for the
“backyard” owner; as well as
breeding many excellent horses
for those owners who wish to
compete at higher levels.
LBF Morgan horses have been highly successful at
dressage, distance, trail riding, driving & ranch
use. They are noted for their beauty, correct con-
formation, gentle dispositions, all around usefulness,
willing attitudes and long lasting soundness.
All LBF stallions and the majority of mares are old
style Foundation Morgans. |

  Happy New Year everyone.
Vermont finally has winter and the snow is here.
I am very pleased to announce that my beautiful four year old LBF Some like It Hot ( Triple S Wings Of Wind x LBF Mona Lisa ) has been sold to Laurie Grann of Rhode Island. She will be used primarily as her trail horse and I know that they will have great fun together. "Norma" was beautifully trained by Kristal Homoki. Kristal had two of my mares this summer, LBF China Town Doll who came home this fall and LBF Amazing Grace who will complete a year with Kristal and then come home to be my next dressage project.
Levi our Cream stallion is back at Kristal's for the winter, then I hope to lease him to someone who would like to lease him and breed their mares to him then return him in the fall. Levi produced two gorgeous fillies this year and they can be seen at www.mtntopmorgans.com .
LBF Gay Catalina will be having a palomino foal by him in 2013. We are very excited about this cross.
Our other mare that is in foal is LBF Memphis Belle who was in foal last year but lost her pregnancy some time during the winter. She is in foal to
"Wings". Can't wait for this one too.Both mares are looking very pregnant right now.
In May our orphan foal, LBF Ella Vermont , now a 6 year old had her first foal and the first for us in four years. The lovely chestnut filly LBF Ruby Red Vermont is by my Sr. Stallion "Wings."
I weaned LBF Ruby Red Vermont (Triple S Wings Of Wind x LBF Ella Vermont) late this fall. She is with her surrogate mother H- Scarlet. Mary Jean Vasiloff has been very kind in letting me borrow her beautiful filly Whippoorwill Moonshine (Whippoorwill Newmoon x Whippoorwill Halo) to keep Ruby company. The two fillies are a month apart in age and have become the best of friends.
Gracie, LBF Amazing Grace, will have spent the better part of a year with Kristal Homoki in training by this spring. I am so thrilled with what Gracie and Kristal are doing and hope to be able to show her at training level in 2013.
Last winter LBF April's Delight who we had sold to Erin Amato quite a few years ago was re-sold to the Wysocki family. You can read their write up on the sold page.
Am so delighted that April found another great home. Erin is away at college and felt it was time for April to teach another family.
This past summer was a bit of a trial as we had four horses that had Lyme disease. All four were horses that we use every day and some were almost unridable from this horrific disease. Anyway, they were all treated and are dong very well now. I hope to be able to compete again with Firefly this following summer now that she is feeling well again.
