Our alfalfa/grass fields are used to feed the horses stabled at Ricigliano Farms , this way we can monitor the quality of feed offered. 

At Ricigliano Farms the animal's care is our number one concern. We are onsite 24/7 and are knowlegable lifelong horsemen. Care and knowledge make a difference in the care our horses and in the care our client's horses receive.
