Porterfield Farms

Porterfield Farms is owned and operated by James and April Porterfield of Evans, Georgia, USA. We have two sons, Canon, 7, and Caden, 5. Three generations of farming and horse breeding have led us to believe fate had a hand in our discovery of the world of miniatures. My husband's family raised dairy cattle, and my grandfather owned race horses. Ho... rses have been in our blood since childhood. My first experience with these majestic animals was an introduction to horse raising in 1975.

Falabella Guille was the 1st place title holder at the Miniature World Event 1997 in harness and color. Five 1st-Place titles at the Fireworks Miniature Horse show in 1988 and four 1st-Place titles at the Dixieland Jamboree in 1988. He is also one of the original Argentine Imports from Julio Falabella himself. Guille was one of Julio's most-prized stallions and was sold for a handsome sum after many negotiations. At this time, we are one of the largest pure Falabella breeders in the United States. Our bloodlines include the legendary Falabella Guille. Falabella AF Zumbador, Toyland Casino Chips, Toyland Tamboro, and the Regina Winery lineage. We are dedicated to preserving this rare breed.
