Lynne Benioff

Lynne Benioff breeds Percheron horses in Kamuela, HI, in Hawaii County near Hilo. Her small-scale farm emphasizes quality over quantity with each foal receiving attentive care under gentle handling and regular human interaction.

She follows established registry standards and conducts comprehensive health screenings, including regular veterinary checks and soundness evaluations, to support lasting soundness and vitality. Daily turnout on open pasture and a balanced diet of local forage shape sturdy hooves and resilient frames, while seasonal supplements address mineral needs. Herd companions and early exposure to hoof trimming, grooming sessions, and basic ground work encourage calm temperaments and ease during later training.

The ranch’s rolling pastures at 3,200 feet elevation offer cool mornings and gentle trade winds that benefit muscle development and respiratory health. Lynne’s hands-on approach extends to tailored ground work and riding preparation sessions adapted to each horse’s learning pace. Owners and visitors often comment on the horses’ steady gait, amiable nature, and suitability for light farm work, driving, or trail pleasure.
