Tricia Folkestad

Tricia Folkestad, Percheron horses breeder in Motley, MN in the Central Minnesota region near Brainerd provides well-raised draft horses. She holds membership with the American Percheron Horse Association and follows recommended health protocols, including regular vet checkups and soundness evaluations.

Her Percherons live on spacious pastures bordered by woodlands, where daily handling introduces them to farm life and gentle routines. Known for calm temperaments and impressive strength, they often participate in light draft demonstrations and farm events. Tricia began breeding Percherons over a decade ago, sourcing foundation stock from respected lines to maintain sound conformation and gentle dispositions.

Visitors to the farm often note the horses’ friendly nature and ease under saddle or harness, reflecting the careful socialization they receive from foalhood. The farm’s facilities include heated stalls and quiet turnout areas to ensure comfort through Minnesota’s seasonal shifts. Regular farrier visits and dental care are part of each horse’s schedule.
