Ellie Crosby

Ellie Crosby raises Percheron horses in Long Lake, MN, Hennepin County and the Twin Cities near Minneapolis. She has been dedicated to developing sound draft horse lines for years with membership in the American Percheron Horse Association and adherence to regular veterinary health screenings. The herd is managed on rotational pasture and given daily handling from foal to adulthood to ensure calm, willing temperaments. Foals are introduced early to harness work and gentle groundwork under close supervision.

Her farm sits along the lake shore, offering horses room to roam in natural settings and fostering strong bone and muscle development. Regular farrier visits and tailored nutrition programs support each horse’s well-being year-round. Several of her Percherons have performed well at regional draft horse demonstrations, reflecting a focus on steady movement and sound structure. Ellie values long-term partnerships with owners, emphasizing honest communication and thorough guidance for first-time draft horse enthusiasts.
