About Us
​"Warioto Farm Inc. is proud to be recognized as the First Equus Forever Farm."
Warioto Farm is centrally located outside Nashville, TN in the historic town of Franklin. The climate is temperate for our horses and riders and YES, we now have an indoor for those few inclement days.  We have 3 barns, 8 large pastures, 8 paddocks, an all weather outdoor ring and indoor arena- all spread over 300 acres. Warioto Farm Inc. is now accepting a limited number of adults, lay-ups and retirees. We specialize in retirement horses.
​Over the past 40 years, we have gained national and international recognition for breeding and showing quality young hunters. Our boarding, training and individual care programs are known for giving superior attention to every detail concerning the horses and their owners. Specializing in retirees and layups.
Warioto Farm Inc. is now a proud CWD sponsor.

As we go into our fourth decade, we are looking forward and are also looking back at Warioto Farm Inc.'s various accomplishments. Our vision - to produce show hunters that are bred exclusively for our sport. Warioto has owned and represented some of the top hunter stallions in the country such as Viscount, Fabled Monarch, Texas Fuel, Zarr, Perrell and Absolute. Warioto Farm Inc.'s horses have been USEF Horse of the Year, WEF Champions, HITS Champions and Best Young Horse at Devon and Upperville. We are excited about continuing to develop, show and sell quality hunters for the show ring.

Julie Bush, for all she brought to Warioto Farm, Inc., both professionally and personally, making it one of the most respected hunter breeding and showing barns in the nation.
She will always be here.
