How Different Life Would Be If You Were Loved By a Friesian...

Starlit Ridge Farm is a small family-run farm located in Salem, New York.  We specialize in hand-raised Friesians from Ster mares with exceptional temperaments and bloodlines.  We offer Friesians at many ages and training levels.  

Starlit Ridge Farm is built on the idea that all horses are individual and need special treatment.  Our farm is family-run which allows for the special attention every horse requires.  Our horses are a part of our family.
