Rena Martin

Rena Martin is a Percheron breeder in Lore City, OH, located in Guernsey County and the Appalachian Plateau near Columbus. She has spent over a decade raising draft horses under United States Percheron Association guidelines, ensuring each foal undergoes careful health screenings and pedigree documentation.

Rena focuses on natural turnout and daily pasture time, pairing sturdy fencing with regular handling so her horses grow familiar with human interaction from an early age. Her farm follows a low-stress approach inspired by traditional draft-horse husbandry, with winter stalls designed for warmth and summer fields rotated to sustain healthy grazing. Foals receive veterinarian examinations at key developmental stages and benefit from farrier visits every eight weeks.

A recent visitor remarked on the gentle demeanor of her yearlings and the quiet confidence they exhibit when led. Martin’s commitment to sound structure and calm temperament reflects a decades-long family tradition of supporting local agriculture and equine therapy programs.
