A beautiful farm,
built to work.

Waldorf Farm is where serious New York breeding programs send their mares. Oversized foaling stalls, watched nights, veterinary care on the grounds, and turnout on soils that build bone. The farm carries roughly two hundred horses through the season, and the people who work here know every one of them by name.

The program is run by Jerry Bilinski, DVM, a Cornell-trained veterinarian who has spent his career in New York breeding, and who grew up a few miles from the farm gates.
