Located on Elemental Farms in Chino Valley, Arizona, Freeman Farms is dedicated to breeding naturally talented American Saddlebred and Friesian Horses. Freeman Farms strictly adheres to the breeding standards set forth by the Friesian Horse Association of North America (FHANA) and Het Friesch Paarden Stamboek (FPS).

All are raised in social groups in pastures enclosed by no-climb fence and learn their first lessons on the trail.

Elemental Farms is an educational and research facility developed to promote sustainable agriculture in Arizona. Elemental Farms utilizes the latest in computer control systems to responsibly irrigate crops and has demonstrated that underground drip is a viable method for production of high quality grass hay in northern Arizona. Rich back flush water is used to irrigate the pumpkin and corn crops. The NRCS evaluated our systems and will now EQUIP growers in our area for implementation of similar highly efficient systems. No tax dollars or EQUIP money was used to fund systems at Elemental Farms.
Produce featured at Freeman Farms includes award winning sweet corn, boutique pumpkins such as the Rouge vif d'Etamps, otherwise known as the "Cinderella," and the highest quality, award winning Orchard Grass hay.
