Julia Lenoci

Julia Lenoci and Chris Kemp are Shire horse breeders in Damascus, OR, in the Willamette Valley near Portland. They have been raising Shire horses for over twelve years, register their foals with the American Shire Horse Association and follow a structured health protocol including annual veterinary checkups, regular farrier visits and routine deworming.

Their horses live mainly on rotational pasture with access to spacious shelters, and receive daily handling to encourage calm temperaments. Foals begin groundwork at an early age, integrating basic halter training and familiarization with draft harness to support sound musculoskeletal development.

Several of their mares and stallions have placed in regional draft horse classes, appealing to enthusiasts who value both strength and gentle dispositions. The farm’s historic barn dates to the 1920s, reflecting a long commitment to preserving heritage breeds in a setting that balances tradition and careful animal stewardship.
