OT Farms

OT Farms breeds Brabant horses in Dittmer, MO, in Jefferson County near St. Louis. It has been focused on Brabant breeding for years, collaborating with draft horse associations and applying recommended health screenings for genetic, cardiac, and hoof health.

The farm maintains a small herd of broodmares and a carefully selected stallion, ensuring direct oversight of pedigrees and breeding outcomes. Foals are raised in family-run pastures with regular turnout, early handling by farm staff, and a nutrition plan tailored to support growth and joint development. Each spring foal crop receives individual attention during early handling to foster confidence and trust before training begins.

The farm’s approach blends traditional husbandry with routine hoof trimming, veterinary checkups, and personalized training for farm and show environments. Several young Brabant horses have placed in local harness events and agricultural fairs, illustrating the farm’s quiet dedication to preserving strength, calm temperament, and versatility.
