Baroque Horse Magazine is a high-class, artsy magazine with tremendous distribution around the world.   So we were thrilled when they highlighted the Mangalarga Marchador in the December Christmas issue.

The Marchador now joins the other classic baroque breeds on its pages – Lusitanos, Friesians, Andalusians, Lippazans and more!   To read the article in its entirety, please click on the pdf file link named “Mangalarga Marchador”  below.

SW Update – Gaia do Summerwind!

Gaia made history at 11:00 p.m.October 27, 2012, becoming the first MM foal born in the US using imported frozen semen from Brasil. A labor of love, our dream was realized when Agro Maripá collected and exported the first frozen MM semen from 3 of his stallions in Brasil.  Our continued thanks to Agro Maripa!

Gaia is the product of Oma de Maripa and Brasilia do Summerwind.  She was reserved by Dr. Adrienne C. Scheck of Scottsdale AZ and with SW Future Foal retaining breeding rights to her to ensure her genetics are carried forward in the U.S.

All of us are thrilled with her!!!!!

Her name Gaia was selected by Adrienne for a number of reasons.   Gaia (“guy-a”) is the goddess or personification of Earth or Mother Earth (the Greek common noun for “land” is ge or ga) in pre-Olympian Greek mythology.  The Gaia hypothesis proposes that organisms interact with their inorganic surroundings on Earth to form a self-regulating, complex system that contributes to maintaining the conditions for life on the planet.
