Quality Morgan Horses
The Morgan is compact and refined in build, with strong limbs, an expressive face, large eyes, well-defined withers, laid back shoulders and a well arched neck.
The breed's trotting ability made it a favorite for harness racing in the 1840s. Morgans were also
used in the Civil War as cavalry mounts. In the post-civil war era, Morgans were also used in the Pony Express and as mounts for the cavalry in the western United States.

Meadowind Oaks
Located in sunny Sarasota, Florida, Meadowind Oaks is a very picturesque piece of
property situated midway between the beautiful beaches and the Myakka State Park. It is less
than 10 minutes away from shopping, motels, and restaurants, and about 20 minutes away from
the waterfront, downtown, and the Sarasota airport. The Tampa airport is an hour away.
Meadowind Oaks is just off Interstate 75.
Sarasota is on the west coast of Florida and is world renowned for its white sand beaches.
The famous Siesta Key Beach is ten minutes away, and Myakka State Park is 20 minutes in the
other direction. The park is celebrated for its portrayal of Florida themes, offering bike
paths, canoe rentals, and airboat tours; It features bird watching; eagles, hawks, and osprey
as well as wading birds, cranes, and various other kinds. Wildlife abound there, especially
alligators. |
Meadowind Oaks is a breeding farm for Morgan horses. Most of the horses have
been born and raised here by Jean. They have all been trained by her, and oriented to people coming and going.
The farm is an idyllic and peaceful place nestled among towering old oak trees covered with Spanish
Moss, away from the hustle and bustle of town, but yet close enough to town to be easily accessible.
A little time passed at Meadowind Oaks with Jean’s horses is a refreshing relaxing
experience.
Jean also offers riding lessons along with lessons in carriage driving, the fastest growing
equestrian sport world wide.
