About Us
Ever Glades Farm, nestled in the rolling hills north of Kansas City, MO, was established in 1832 by Kentuckians Thomas Calvin and Charlotte Griggsby Gordon. Landon and Sarah Rowland purchased the property in 1986 with modest intentions but before long the farm became a significant part of the American Saddlebred horse industry in the Midwest.
