Anchor Creek Farms 

Horses For Sale

      

     Jim Murry, owner and operator of Anchor Creek Farms, is a 3^rd generation horseman. In his younger years, he and his dad worked with 20 mule hitches. They would go to various parades and pull the Sico original oil tank wagon. In addition to pulling in parades, they also used mules to work farm fields and cultivate tobacco. As Jim got older, he began to delve deeper in the horse industry by buying, training, and selling work and riding horses. He also enjoyed roping competitively until family and farming began to take the fore front in his life. Still continuing to buy and sell work horses and mules, Jim began to make a living farming too. Occasionally, when time allowed, he would train horses. Jim continued to farm, specializing in hay, wheat, corn, soybean, and tobacco. He feeds all of his horses from hay and corn grown on his farm. In the above picture: Paul Murry, driving a team of eight mules, and Jim, riding one of the mules, while a group of passengers enjoy an afternoon out in the country.

     Within the past three years, Jim’s daughter, Brittanni has become interested in training horses, and she has been doing so, breaking the horses her dad buys, to ride. Everything she knows has been acquired through attending clinics, reading, watching training programs on TV, and her dad. She has been riding since before she could walk, and, since then, she has developed a passion for training horses. She in currently balancing training horses and attending college to get her bachelor’s degree in Business Management. This website is being put up in the hopes of attracting interested buyers in the horses Brittanni trains.

Our Business

Anchor Creek Farms has been a running establishment for the past 18 years. Jim Murry has been working in the horse and mule industry all of his life, and, although he manages his own farm, he still buys and sells a great number of horses and mules to local farmers and other dealers in the area. Some of his mules are even bought to work as pack animals out west. It has only been within the past three years that training horses has become more prevalent in his business. Jim's daughter, Brittanni, has been pushing to make training horses a part of her dad's business. She trains horses her dad buys and then advertises them on equine.com. This website will hopefully help market the horses she trains and better explain what she is doing and hopes to accomplish.
