Glen Gingerich

Glen Gingerich breeds Percheron horses in Arcola, Illinois, within Central Illinois near Champaign. He adheres to American Percheron Horse Association guidelines and maintains routine health testing for his breeding stock.

Operating from a family farmstead established generations ago, his program emphasizes proper conformation and gentle dispositions. Foals are raised in open pastures and receive daily handling by multiple caregivers to support calm temperaments. Each horse is fed a diet of locally sourced hay, oats, and barley, with veterinary oversight ensuring balanced nutrition year-round.

Yearlings begin basic groundwork under saddle with experienced handlers to prepare them for farm work, draft competitions, or pleasure riding. Visitors by appointment have commented on the attentive care, measure of trust between horse and handler, and calm demeanor of the herd. Facility tours offer a chance to observe the horses at work around the farm, learn about day-to-day management, and see young stock acclimate to seasonal changes.
