The farm consists of 80 acres of paddocks, multiple barns and outbuildings all of which make Star Barn Thoroughbreds an ideal spot for a mare to foal, a foal to grow and prosper or a racehorse to lay-up.

Regal Heir Farm Acquired by Agrarian Country

Now operating as
Star Barn Thoroughbreds

We are happy to announce Star Barn Thoroughbreds at Agrarian Country!

Star Barn Thoroughbreds farm will be operated by Agrarian Country and continue as a full service breeding farm at the former historic Regal Heir Farm. Agrarian Country is a nonprofit educational institution focusing on fully-functioning agricultural enterprises, educational programs, and destination sites for agricultural tourism.

The name “Star Barn Thoroughbreds” is derived from one of North America's most recognizable barns, The Star Barn, currently located in Middletown, Pennsylvania. Agrarian Country has been the owner and caretaker of this National Historic Landmark since 2007.

The Star Barn Complex will be relocated to Lebanon County across Interstate-81 from the Star Barn Thoroughbreds farm to serve as an Agricultural Education and Exhibition Center.

The original Star Barn complex was built in 1872 by John Motter, who raised horses at the farm. During the Civil War, Mr. Motter furnished the United States Army with thousands of horses. Motter was well-respected for his principled business dealings and his horses were valued by dealers looking for the best quality stock.
