Jeannie Norkett

Jeannie Norkett is a Shire horse breeder in Moore, SC, located in Sumter County and the Midlands near Columbia. She has been involved with Shire horses for over ten years, holds registrations with key equine associations, and participates in regional health screenings for breeding stock.

All breeding stock undergoes soundness evaluations, genetic testing when available, and temperament assessments to provide a foundation for healthy foals. At the family-run farm, foals enjoy pasture turnout on rolling fields, open-air barns and daily handling routines that foster confident young horses. Foals are weaned at eight months and learn basic ground manners before their first gentle training rides under experienced supervision.

Some graduates have gone on to local therapy programs or appeared in community parades, testifying to their calm disposition and steady work ethic. Prospective owners often appreciate the detailed health records and modest farm environment where each horse receives individual attention.
