Horse Farms Forever is a compact and powerful nonprofit,
founded in 2018 to:
Protect
Marion County’s Farmland Preservation Area was established in 2005. Its mineral-rich soil and water, and spring sheds are subject to increasing development and roadway threats. We participate and defend.
Promote
The culture, character and vibrant economy of greater Ocala is uniquely based on the presence of horses and horse farms. We share the facts.
Preserve
Landowners who love their land and wish to see it passed along to future generations have many options. We show the way.
Plan
The blueprint for Rural Land Management is written at the county level and made strong by collaboration and community influence. We facilitate progress.
