Ivy Keator

Ivy Keator breeds Percheron horses in East Meredith, NY, Delaware County and the Catskills near Binghamton. She has been raising these draft horses for more than a decade and maintains membership with national draft horse associations, following recommended health and genetic screenings.

Her grazing pastures and well-ventilated barns are cleaned daily, and each foal is handled from birth to promote calm temperament and ease of training. She fosters early socialization by exposing young horses to children and farm equipment, ensuring adaptable, confident adults. Regular trail rides through neighboring woodlands support natural movement and muscle tone.

Her program also includes seasonal farrier visits and targeted conditioning to support strong bone and muscle development. Her commitment to preserving Percheron heritage is appreciated by local equine enthusiasts. Many local farms rely on her well-bred Percherons for light draft work and show ring appearances.
