John M. Hahn

John M. Hahn and Molly Beth Hahn breed Percheron horses in Hay Springs, NE, in Sioux County near Rapid City.

They have been breeding Percheron horses for over fifteen years, holding membership in the American Percheron Society and following recommended health screening protocols. Their horses are raised on pasture with daily handling from birth to encourage steady, calm temperaments and robust conditioning. Nutrition focuses on locally harvested hay and oats, balanced to support sound hooves and muscle development through seasonal changes.

The family-run farm lies on rolling prairie where a small herd size allows individualized attention to each mare and foal. They maintain rotational grazing and regular farrier care, and young horses undergo groundwork before engaging in light farm tasks. A local agricultural journal once noted that their Percherons combine dependable strength with a gentle disposition, traits that Hahn owners value.
