About Gypsy Fever Farms
Gypsy Fever Farms raises Gypsy vanner horses in Sun City, California, in the Inland Empire region east of Los Angeles, making it one of the more active Gypsy vanner breeders in Southern California. Barbara Dibernardo and her family run the program with a focus on producing foals that are correct and balanced in both body and mind, drawing on bloodlines from some of the breed's past and current standouts.
The farm's show record reflects that breeding approach. Within just the first two years of competing, the program earned multiple National and Reserve Championships, Show High Points, and Top Ten National Year End standings. A home-bred horse from the farm's second foal crop went on to claim a National Grand Championship in 2018.
Gypsy Fever Farms breeds infrequently by design, preferring to evaluate each foal's conformation, movement, and temperament after birth before making any placement decisions. Foals receive regular handling and early training from the start, including exposure to a range of real-world situations and, in many cases, the show ring itself. Stallion service is also available through the farm for those seeking access to its champion-line breeding stock.
