Five Hills is a small family farm in Southwest Missouri, in the
heart of the Ozarks. We're about equal distance from the Lake of the Ozarks, Pomme de Terre lake, Lake Stockton,
and the lakes around Branson. We're also in the heart of MFT country. In addition, Missouri has always been known
for it's mules, they are even our state animal. My husband was never interested in horses until several years ago when
we moved out to our farm and met some neighbors that had a small jack and mules. He decided he had to have one of those long
eared critters and we got started with a couple mules out of QH mares and his little jack. I had my doubts, but to put
it mildly, I am mule crazy now too.
From that and my love for our Missouri Fox Trotter mares, I educated
myself and developed a plan to raise mules we would want for ourselves and we have done just that for over 12 years.
As the time passes, I also look forward to grandchildren and ponies,
so of course those ponies must be foxtrotters! And would you know, just at the right right time the MFTHBA opens a registry
for what else?? The Missouri Foxtrotting Pony Registry! Read more about it on Erin's page and see what the excitement's about.

I've learned.
