Hanover is home to world-famous racehorses. In fact, Hanover Shoe Farms has been the top money-winning horse breeder since records have been kept!

Although the farming and agriculture industry is rapidly shrinking, Hanover Shoe Farms is doing its best to stay alive and thriving.

The farm was originally owned by a shoe company, hence the name Hanover Shoe Farms. Racing and then eventually horse breeding, was just a hobby that Lawrence B. Sheppard, a junior partner in the company had. The racing and breeding of horses soon became a bigger operation than the shoe company, and as a result, Sheppard sold the shoe company and focused on developing his horses and making a name for Hanover in the world of Horse Racing.
