Farm Info
This very special place in the rural East Texas countryside characterizes the perfect balance of past, present, and future for the Fernandes family. Neither Sandra nor Gary have had a long history of involvement with horses, but became intensely interested in horses as their other business interests wound down and their desire increased to create a lasting legacy for their children and grandchildren.
The original 50 acre homestead for Lyday Farms has belonged to Sandra Lyday Fernandes’ family for several generations. And this connection to the past is evident as one watches Gary and Sandra pour over the family’s extensive genealogy journals at the farmhouse’s expansive kitchen table. “I’m the farm part of Lyday Farms,” says Sandra. “I love this land.”
