Korie Ann Ford

Korie Ann Ford is a Shire horse breeder in Waynesville, NC, in Haywood County and the Smoky Mountains near Asheville. She has bred Shire horses for more than ten years and holds membership in the American Shire Horse Association with regular health screening for soundness and conformation. Her horses are raised on open pastures at the foothills of the Blue Ridge, where they gain daily turnout, natural forage, and gentle hands-on handling from foaling onward.

A former trail guide, she brings practical experience to selective breeding for calm temperaments and sturdy bone structure, traits valued by draft enthusiasts and traditional farmers alike. Korie Ann Ford’s breeding program emphasizes balanced nutrition, social bonding among equines, and quiet confidence in young stock destined for both show rings and working farms.

Owners often note her clear, detailed updates during each season of growth and training.
