Rita Hutter

Rita Hutter breeds purebred Percheron horses in Vero Beach, FL, on the Treasure Coast near Fort Pierce. She has been raising Percheron horses for several years, maintaining memberships in national draft horse associations and following strict health testing protocols for her breeding stock.

Her mares and stallions live together on well-drained pastures, where daily handling builds trust and early exposure to farm life. A carefully balanced diet and seasonal farrier visits support their growth and soundness. The farm’s philosophy emphasizes gentle methods and consistent routines to nurture horses with calm dispositions around equipment and people.

Since its founding, the farm has maintained a reputation for producing sturdy, willing horses that adapt to light farm work, driving and trail riding. Situated near the ocean, the property blends seaside breezes with traditional farm life to create a relaxed environment for all animals.
