European Brabant Farms and Breeders in America

LOCATION: Mercer, PA

​

Our focus at All the King's Horses is on breeding high quality European Brabant and Brabant Stock horses.  In 2019, we travelled in Europe to meet breeders and explore the homeland of the breed.  We have imported several fillies as well as a weanling stud colt to be the future of our program. In addition to breeding, our horses spend the winter working in the woods as part of our business Logging with Horses.  This helps to ensure that the animals we are breeding have sound minds and a good work ethic along with their stunning looks.  It also keeps everyone healthy and in good condition.
