Fletcher Farms Amarillo

Welcome to Fletcher Farms Amarillo! Follow along on journey of purchasing 43 acres in Amarillo Texas. Our journey began at the beginning of 2022. It all started with a donkey who we found on Craigslist needing a new home. Jack couldn't be the only animal on the farm so we rescued a mom and 1 week old baby donkey from going to slaughter along with 6 Belgian Draft Horses to join the donkeys on the farm. Come to find out the momma donkey was pregnant when we rescued her and she had a baby in January 2023. After learning the horrible treatment of these horse that are at livestock yards we knew we wanted to help as many as we could. At the end of 2022, we applied for and received 501c3 status to start a Non-Profit organization called the Big Hoof Foundation to save more of the "Big Hoof" horses. Since starting the farm and foundation we have rescued 25 Belgian Draft horses from shipping to slaughter. Subscribe to our channel so you don't miss anything happening here around the farm!
