Thoroughbred farms are a world of their own: Whether they’re small family-operated nurseries or stud farms famous the world over, each one is beautiful … and beautifully kept. From Kentucky to California, Florida to Maryland, farmers who maintain these equine operations work hard to preserve green space and open fields where their horses will thrive, and we’re celebrating the beauty of Thoroughbred farms in America by sharing the posts below.

Seattle Slew’s final resting place, he was buried whole whereas most are just their head, heart and hooves. The horse in the paddock is worth a cool $35million!! I’ve already forgotten his name, but his stud services command $250k guaranteed foal. There’s crazy $$ floating around Lexington. Another horse here’s worth $40mil. Some of these dry stack rock walls are OLD, they’re everywhere and still getting built the same way. The farms we saw had the double fences with rounded corners. You’ve heard of the horse of a different color? It’s a term used here to get the race horses used to seeing lighter horses. They found seeing a different colored horse was too distracting on the track. Cool, huh? #kentuckyhorsecountry #exquisitefarms #expensivehorses #i❤️Kentucky

I ain’t gonna lie. Waking up with a view of these two girls every morning is pretty amazing. Although they have a ginormous pasture to graze in, they always come to the fence for some scratches whenever we call for them. They are both 2 year olds thoroughbreds. The kids are in love too. ❤️ Be prepared for soooo many more pics of @dewdropinsaxony - this amazing #airbnb and farm we’ve had the privilege of staying at this week! . PS - notice one girl is playing with a rogue halter! Lol! . . . #thoroughbred #thoroughbredfarm #squadgoals #fillysquad #gentlydownthestream #allthingsbrightandbeautiful #saxonyfarm #lexingtonkentucky #lexington #bluegrass #greengrassgrows #farmher #vacation #vacay #vacayvibes #lashboost #rodanandfields #peace #heaven #family #farmhouse
