Jeff Morse, carriage driving trainer, clinician and keeper of the flame of the historic Green Meads Morgan Horse Farm is our guest this week. There have been horses on Green Meads Farm since 1927 when Darwin and Kate Morse first set up their home in Richmond, Massachusetts. Abbington of Shadey Lawn, the 1949 National Champion Mare and their first Morgan arrived in the early 1950's with her first foal by her side, Windcrest Ben Davis (x Upwey Ben Don). For the 50 years that followed, Green Meads Farm has produced and trained Morgan Horses which have found their way around the world. Curently, Jeff Morse manages the farm, trains Morgans for all disciplines and accepts all breeds of horses and ponies - and mules! - for carriage driving training.
