Ref-Farm

Ref-Farm, a family-owned Percheron breeder in Eagle Bend, MN, serves central Minnesota near St. Cloud.

Richard Refshaw and Karen Refshaw have bred Percheron horses for more than ten years, maintain membership in national equine associations, and participate in industry health workshops. Their farm features roomy stalls, daily pasture turnout on gently rolling fields, and early handling routines so foals grow accustomed to people, sounds and simple farm chores.

They pay close attention to conformation and temperament, and several of their young horses have earned ribbons at county fairs and regional draft horse shows. All animals receive regular farrier visits, dental care checkups and comprehensive vaccination plans tailored to each horse’s age and workload. Buyers appreciate their transparency about bloodlines, ongoing health testing and clear documentation for each foal’s early development. They work closely with a local equine veterinarian to monitor herd health and support sound breeding decisions that benefit each horse’s well-being.
