This is Mokete! People have been asking us where in the world did we get the name for our farm. Well, it started quite a few years ago when we discovered Mill Swamp Indian horses- Steve Edwards has dedicated his life to saving the Corolla Spanish Mustang and Mokete is the first Corolla that is to be part of an off the island breeding program. Steve and Mokete are the reason why we got into horses- so it's all their fault!!!

Mokete is kind,very intelligent, and as you can see, beautiful. We love having her at Mokete's Village. Read more about this rare and wonderful breed below.

About Steve Edwards & Mill Swamp Indian Horses
Mill Swamp Indian Horses is a program of Gwaltney Frontier Farm, Incorporated, a 501 (c) 5 non profit breed conservation program. Located outside of Smithfield, Virginia, the program works to prevent the extinction of the Corolla Spanish Mustang, perhaps the oldest and rarest distinct genetic grouping of American horses. Other nearly extinct strains of the earliest horses of America are also preserved and promoted here, including the Marsh Tacky, Shackleford, Grand Canyon, Brislawn, Galiceno, and Choctaw, comprising one of the largest and most diverse herds of Colonial Spanish Horses in the world. From the desert southwest, eastward through Texas, Oklahoma, Mississippi, into the swamps of South Carolina and the sandy beaches of North Carolina--these were the horses that built America. Their ancestors arrived in the New World nearly one hundred years before the English set foot on Jamestown.
