Michael Barker

Michael Barker, Percheron horses, Hanley Falls, MN, is based in Yellow Medicine County near Sioux Falls. He began working with Percheron breeding under his family’s guidance more than ten years ago and maintains membership in the American Percheron Horse Association.

All horses undergo annual veterinary examinations, regular farrier visits and tailored nutritional plans. Genetic screening for common draft breed conditions promotes long-term soundness while pasture rotation and biosecurity measures support herd health. They live in open pastures with shelter access and receive daily handling to foster trust and steady temperaments.

His breeding program focuses on versatility, producing horses suited for light farm work, carriage driving and community events. Visitors note the calm nature of the teams and Barker’s patient approach during farm demonstrations. His family’s multi-generational history in draft horse care informs a respectful, pasture-based philosophy and he participates in regional agricultural fairs across Minnesota.
