Cannon Valley

Cannon Valley is a Percheron horse breeder in Cashton, WI, Monroe County and the Driftless Area near La Crosse. James A. Olson and Lori A. Volden have raised Percheron foals for more than two decades, maintaining American Percheron Horse Association standards and conducting routine health screenings. The horses live in stall-free barns with daily turnout on pasture and receive early handling to foster confidence and ease of training. A focus on sound conformation and gentle temperament guides their breeding choices, resulting in offspring suited for farm work, driving, or recreational riding.

Visitors describe a welcoming family atmosphere and appreciate the breeders’ willingness to answer questions and share resources. The farm’s quiet hillside location offers horses room to roam and visitors a chance to observe natural herd dynamics. They participate regularly in regional draft horse shows, earning recognition for their teams’ steady gaits and calm manners. Each foal carries a life-long identification microchip and receives up-to-date vaccinations under veterinary guidance.
