Ayrshire Farm

We had three dinners at Ayrshire Farm in Upperville, VA a few weeks ago. It was a beautiful horse farm with over 900 acres. The original plantation house of Ayrshire was built circa 1821. The dinners were a huge success. It was tiring having three back-to-back dinners, but we had an amazing staff that helped us through it each dinner. We put one location on a hill that over looked the Blue Ridge Mountains and the other location was within the elegant horse stables on the property. The farm is known for breeding Shire horses, which are instantly recognizable for the long white hair draping down to their hooves.

Besides breeding horses the farm is also a certified organic farm that specializes in rare and endangered breeds of livestock and heirloom fruits and vegetables.
