Square C Ranch

Square C Ranch, Percherons, Grantsville, MD, is nestled in Garrett County and the Allegheny Mountains near Cumberland. The ranch has been breeding Percheron draft horses for over 15 years and holds membership in the Percheron Horse Association, with all stock completing routine health checks and overseen by a local veterinarian.

Its foals grow up in open pastures and are handled daily, building trust with the Carr family. Its facilities include a renovated bank barn and spacious paddocks that let horses move freely through every season. Bloodlines trace back to farm teams of the upper Midwest, and recent offspring have shown strong aptitude in logging trials and team parades.

It welcomes visitors by appointment, sharing insights on draft horse training and conservation of Percheron traits. Recent graduates from the ranch have taken ribbons in regional pulling competitions and have served in local historical reenactments.
