The Best Name Ideas For Your Horse Farm
If you’ve ever dreamed of owning a horse farm, you’ve probably spent time thinking about what you’d want to call your plot of land. My husband and I just accomplished the dream of buying a property for our farm, and now we have to name it! This has led me to create a list of horse farm names that I wanted to share with you!
Many people give their horse property a loving name; however, to legally claim that name and be considered an entity (farm or business) you must register the farm with the USDA/FSA. Not every horse activity falls under agriculture, so if that is the case, you will need to register as a business in your state and claim an EIN number from the IRS.
Whether you’re simply looking for a way to refer to your property or you plan on running a horse operation, I hope this list of horse farm names will give you some good ideas!
