Greengait
Farm Paso Finos
Located
in the mountains of Western North Carolina (Tryon, NC) about 40 miles from Asheville,
GreenGait Farm Paso Finos
started informally in the year 2000 with Bill and Judith Kerns looking for a closely
matched pair of horses to be a part of their wedding plans. Judith brought many
years of riding and breeding experience in the horse industry to the union and
Bill brought a deformed hip, low golf handicap, and a ton of enthusiasm. As a
part of their search they attended the Piedmont Paso Fino Horse Association’s
Asheville Show. Their hearts were won over by the smooth gait, natural elegance,
intelligence, and willing disposition of the Paso Fino Horses. Soon thereafter
a pair of Paso Finos became residents of GreenGait Farm, and transportation to
their wedding.

Several
Paso Fino additions later, Judith decided to fulfill a childhood fantasy and enter
the show ring with some of our horses. Our first year was an experience beyond
our best expectations. Our Paso Fino Pleasure
stallion, El Santon de United won most of his classes and several Grand
Championship ribbons at shows in the Southeast. He capped the season off winning
National Champion in the 4 year old colts/geldings class, and being awarded the
high point stallion in his class by the Piedmont Paso Horse Association.
Our second season proved even more successful with a National championship in
the Pleasure Stallion class and as Reserve Grand National Champion Pleasure Stallion.
El Santon received his Title of Proficiency award with over 500 show points earned
and a second year as the High Point Paso Fino
Pleasure Stallion in the Piedmont region. |

A mild four season climate, coupled with a vast supply of some of the country’s
best horse trails, makes Western North Carolina a great location for horse lovers.
Our Paso Finos not only turn heads on the trails, they have proven themselves
as the consummate trail horse, providing comfort, stamina, and a wonderful spirit.
