Briar Hill

Briar Hill is a Percheron horse breeder in West Farmington, Ohio, in Trumbull County and the Mahoning Valley near Youngstown. Emery L Stutzman has been raising draft horses for more than ten years and holds membership in the American Percheron Horse Association. Each horse undergoes annual health screenings and hoof care protocols to ensure strong development.

Stutzman’s approach centers on pasture-based management with daily turnout and regular hands-on handling from foal stage. A covered round pen and open paddocks offer room for gradual training and safe socialization. The farm’s gentle Percheron lines are known for steady temperaments and reliable performance in driving or light draft work.

The farm operates on 50 acres of mixed meadow and woodland, allowing horses to develop natural strength and balance. Prospective owners can observe daily routines and gain insight into foal care and handling practices.
