BUCHANAN, VA –New Freedom Farm invites the public to attend its "5th Annual Freedom Fest 2023" event April 22nd and April 23rd. The event is a fundraiser for New Freedom Farm and will bring awareness to the farm's mission of "healing heroes through horses."
Freedom Fest will take place each day from 11:00 am – 5:00 pm, rain or shine. Daily entry is $8(adults and children 17 and under free). Tickets are available in advance at www.newfreedofarm.org
In addition to the exciting vendors and live music, Freedom Fest attendees get to see the FAMOUS Mary Miller Jordan perform. In 2010 Mary was selected as one of 100 trainers to compete in the ‘Richest Wild Horse Competition’ in history, the inaugural Supreme Extreme Mustang Makeover. 100 wild horses, partnered with 100 trainers, given 100 days to compete for $100,000. This competition marked not only the beginning of a growing platform from her ‘wins,’ but also changed her life from a place so deep within, that her entire view of ‘winning’ has been changed ever since.
Mary and her first wild horse made the top 20 in that first wild horse show and then went on to win a National TV Show called America’s Favorite Trail Horse. A show much like American Idol, but for horses that aired on HR-TV. This Mustang was then immortalized as a Breyer Model Horse, “Lindsay’s Faith” Model #1704.
Mary went on to compete in the Extreme Mustang Makeover again, but this time she and her Mustang partner performed with no saddle and no bridle. That freestyle brought Mary’s wild Mustang winnings to over $50,000 and an invitation to share her wild Mustang gentling techniques with the entire world. Mary and her wild Mustang ‘Colors’ were featured on the National Geographic’s Nat Geo Wild series ‘Mustang Millionaire’.
