Touring the Bluegrass - PlayMor Farm



On Saturday April 19, Saddle Horse Report toured PlayMor Farm in Lexington, Kentucky to promote the new breeders’ tools at SaddleHorseReport.com.

PlayMor is a family-owned and operated establishment. Established in 1982 by Bill and Sammi Hazen, PlayMor became a private breeding farm in 2005, when family members Jacqueline Clapp and Catherine Hazen joined Bill and Sammi in purchasing a 97-acre farm in Lexington. In addition to the top-notch breeding and training facilities, PlayMor also houses an on-site clinic that specializes in illness and injury recovery.

Here are a few of the pictures from a fun time at PlayMor Farm.
