Hpf

Hpf are Percheron breeders in Fremont, MI, in the Midwest region near Grand Rapids. They follow registry standards and include routine health testing for joint and genetic conditions, and maintain membership in the American Percheron Horse Association. John Powers and Opal Powers oversee daily care and maintain detailed lineage records for each foal from birth.

Their Percherons are raised on mixed pasture with open barns to encourage natural movement and social interaction. In winter they shelter in a well-ventilated barn with straw bedding, while a shaded grove beside the main pasture offers relief on hot days.

The farm’s grounds include training paddocks for light draft work and seasonal wagon rides that illustrate the breed’s gentle strength. Hpf also share updates with visitors by appointment and connect with local draft horse enthusiasts at regional fairs. Guests often remark on the horses’ calm temperament and steady gait.
