Edwin Hochstetler

Edwin Hochstetler is a Percheron breeder in Fredonia, PA, in northwestern Pennsylvania and the Erie area. He has been raising draft horses for over a decade and is a member of the Percheron Horse Association, registering his stock with national associations that promote responsible breeding and health screening. Foals grow up in open pastures with regular handling to encourage gentle temperaments and adaptability.

The farm follows a pasture-based program that emphasizes proper nutrition, routine veterinary checks and seasonal hoof care. Family members share daily tasks feeding and socializing the horses on rolling fields where generations of the Hochstetler family have worked. Seasonal turnout on shaded paddocks supports balanced development through the growing season. Visits by appointment allow prospective owners to meet foals in their home environment. Many owners appreciate the calm, even temperament that makes these horses suitable for light draft work and companion riding.
