The Jana Quarter Horse Farm is located in a rich limestone valley of Central Pennsylvania.  Our soils enable us to produce foals with quality bone and feet.  Our four-seasons climate allows our foals to develop in a healthy environment.  Our entire farm is devoted to pasture allowing our foals to "run out" year round, thus enabling them to develop athletically and socially.

In childhood I learned from my father, a buster of wild and domestic horses, that a horse has a primary purpose to be enjoyed while riding.  With over fifty years of riding, training, breeding and judging the American Quarter Horse we believe we have learned that a truly great riding horse possesses lightness of foot, ribs, neck and mouth.  These are coupled with an intelligent, willing attitude and a structurally sound, eye catching body.  Color is the icing on the cake.

Over the past half century as the Quarter Horse has increasingly become the Quarter Show Horse, which emphasizes event-specific animals; we have experienced increasing difficulty in finding quality, versatile riding horses.  Our mission, then, is to breed for you and us the quality horse we enjoy.
