Kristen Vetter

Kristen Vetter, Percheron breeder in East Grand Forks, MN, is based in northwest Minnesota near Grand Forks. She has been raising Percherons for several years, holds membership in the American Percheron Society, and takes part in regional gatherings to stay current on health and conformation standards. Her barn features spacious stalls and daily turnout on grassy pastures, where foals learn basic handling and lead training alongside adult draft horses. Kristen’s approach centers on patient socialization and positive reinforcement, helping each horse develop a calm, cooperative disposition.

Foals are weaned gradually and receive regular farrier care, vaccinations, and nutrition plans tailored to draft needs. The farm’s simple timber barn and experience with driving harnesses make it a reliable source of sound, willing partners for work and pleasure. Visitors often remark on the herd’s friendly nature and steady temperament, reflecting consistent handling from weaning onward.
