What Is Eponine Farms
Eponine Farms (sometimes referred to as EF or eFarms) is a horse dealership. We work similarly to any dealership, with our goal being to sell you your next horse. We provide horses for sim sites. On a lesser scale, we also buy, breed, and show horses.
How Eponine Farms Works
We have a somewhat particular way of doing things at eFarms. Our system involves specific information charts, conditions, setup, naming systems, and buying and selling programs. We need to be particular with these things in order for the site to run smoothly.
The Benefits
So how does Eponine Farms benefit you? In many ways. First, by being primarily a sales site, you can usually find several horses here that fit your needs. Our prices are usually very reasonable and our contracts are simple and easy to follow. Our range of horses is diverse. We offer a wide variety of disciplines and breeds, including some rare breeds, and you can often find multiple horses to buy. We will put your horse's name on his picture, as well as the buying stable's name (optional), upon request. We also have invitational shows for our preferred customers and shows for owners of 'ef' horses. We also hold schooling shows for our horses for sale in order to get them some show experience before you buy them.

Where We Get Our Horses
We get our horses in a few ways. Since we are just starting off, most horses on the lot are created. We also buy horses to resell later. Another way we get horses is from breeding horses on the lots to get prospect foals. The foals are listed on their sire and dams pages, so you'll know if your horse has been bred before buying it.

The Info Chart
Our info charts are taken from Meadow Creek Farm and are created by Lacee Kay. We use these charts because we feel they are efficient, easy to navigate, and cover a wide vartiety of statistics. Special thanks to Lacee for creating such a wonderful format!
The Conditions
With the exception of Condition-Free sales, all of our horses are under the Eponine contract, whether this is stated specifically on their page or not. The contract can be found on the site's Information Center, under the board About Eponine Farms, in the thread labeled Sales Contracts.
The Setup
Our setup is fairly simple. There are our condition-free sales and then boards organized into breeds. Any discipline can be found under the breed boards. The sporthorse board is for sporthorses who do not fit into any of the breed categories above. To search for horses based on discipline or color, you can go to the About Eponine Farms board for the Horse Directory threads.
Buying/Selling
To buy or inquire about a specific horse, you can post the Potential Buyer's Form on the horse's thread or simply post any inquiries you have about that horse. A guide to selling your horse to Eponine Farms can be found under the Sell Us Your Horse board.
