Southern View Farm

Southern View Farm, Percheron horse breeder in Shelbyville, Tennessee, is located in Bedford County and Middle Tennessee near Nashville. Mary Anna Mitchell has more than fifteen years of experience breeding Percheron horses, with affiliations in the American Percheron Horse Association and a routine health-testing schedule for genetic soundness. The program emphasizes careful selection of breeding stock based on temperament and conformation.

The horses are raised on spacious pastures, receive individual handling from birth, and reside in an open-stall barn that encourages social bonding. Foals begin groundwork training at weaning, introducing basic halter work and leading exercises to prepare them for varied performance paths. The family-run farm spans three generations of Mitchells and balances draft versatility with a gentle disposition suited to both farm work and light driving. Visitors often note the farm’s transparent record keeping and responsive communication regarding foal development timelines.
