Hibernia

Hibernia, Percheron horse breeder in Clinton Corners, NY, operates in Dutchess County and the Hudson Valley near Poughkeepsie. The farm has been home to sturdy Percheron horses for more than a decade and holds active membership in the U.S. Percheron Horse Association.

It follows regular veterinary screenings, farrier visits, and routine evaluations to maintain soundness and temperament. Careful selection of broodmares and stallions follows established conformation standards to produce balanced offspring. Foals are raised in pasture-based environments with daily handling to encourage socialization and early halter training. Owners Harold R. Fountain and Marjorie C. Fountain personally oversee each stage from foaling through early training, sharing a lifelong passion for draft horses.

Daily turnout and access to stalls with soft bedding support well-rounded development and year-round comfort. Many of its horses have been featured in local agricultural fairs, showcasing their versatility and gentle nature.
