Michael Gardner

Michael Gardner and Shauna Gardner breed pony of the Americas in Utah, along the Wasatch Front near Salt Lake City. They have more than ten years of experience in raising these spirited yet gentle horses under national breed registry guidelines and ensure health evaluations from foaling through weaning. Their ponies are raised in open pastures and receive daily handling to encourage calm temperaments and adaptable characters.

Breeding mares are selected for longevity and sound conformation, with annual health screenings overseen by a local veterinarian. Every foal begins exercise training in a family barn where attentive care supports early socialization and sound development. Home to several pasture-raised lines, the farm balances traditional husbandry with a focus on versatility, producing ponies suited for youth shows and trail riding. Visitors often remark on the peaceful setting and well-mannered animals.
