Our Dream Come True After living, training and coaching in the states of Maryland, Ohio, California and Florida, Dan and Christine McLaughlin settled in southwestern Pennsylvania in 1997. After establishing Blue Ribbon Farms, Inc. on leased ground in Brighton Township, Dan and Christine seized an opportunity to achieve their lifelong dream. In 2002, they purchased a 138 acre farm in Dan's hometown of Independence Township. Today's home to Blue Ribbon Farms, Inc. is shaped by a 30-stall barn, 60' x 120' indoor arena, 100' x 200' outdoor arena and 80' x 120' outdoor jump arena surrounded by acre after acre of lush, scenic pastures.
We look forward to sharing our farm with you!
