Ann Mcginnis

Ann Mcginnis, Percheron horses in Union, SC, is located in the upstate and the Piedmont near Charlotte. Since establishing her farm in 2012, she has followed American Percheron Horse Association guidelines, investing in routine veterinary screenings, genetic testing for equine polysaccharide storage myopathy and structured conformation reviews. The family-run operation blends traditional farm life with modern care, featuring heated barn stalls, automatic waterers and seasonal farrier visits.

Horses enjoy 50 acres of rolling pasture with shaded paddocks, balanced forage diets and daily turnout to encourage healthy growth and social development. Early handling includes gentle ground training and gradual exposure to farm equipment, setting a foundation for calm, adaptable temperaments. Genetic selection emphasizes soundness and steady dispositions, producing foals that transition smoothly into driving, light draft work or therapeutic riding settings. Visitors often remark on the horses’ sturdy build, even gait and friendly nature during farm tours.
