John Erskine

  John is a horse farmer. He is also a mentor, a selfless philanthropist, a long time hard headed idealogue. He is a visionary. He possesses a deep well of wisdom, tempered by an unabashed humility with which he works, trains, breeds and loves his horses. 

John is a lifetime subscriber to Small Farmers Journal, and a strong advocate thereof. I am thrilled that he agreed to be a part of our video series. Note the results above.
