Horses Available to purchase
Each year, we offer a limited number of our foals or young offspring to the public and even more rarely, one of our mares or a broke gelding. Many of these horses are either slated to attend the summer shows, or were in our show string in years past. All of our youngsters are extensively handled with appropriate training for their age and growth stages. When you buy from us, rest assured that what is advertised is what you will get!
**New in 2022** We have started to offer consignment services on a limited basis for friends and clients. These horses are carefully evaluated and represented using the same standards of quality and transparency that we employ in marketing our own prospects.
We want our customers to be thrilled with their new addition and to be confident in coming back to purchase another!
Lucasia Fantasy DOB 2/28/2023 (Kirby Farms Silver x Garland Farm's Frances)
Frannie came to us in the spring of her yearling year, from her breeders at Lucasia Ranch in Alberta, Canada. She was significantly taller than her pasture mates at the time and needed some time to grow and mature. We turned her out until early this spring when she was sent out to be lightly introduced to driving. She spent the spring and early summer assisting with farm chores; spreading manure, hooked to the soil conditioner, plowing and mowing hay before coming home for a break for the summer and early fall. Frannie is not the most confident mare that we own; she is currently being driven singly in lines and has been hooked to the cart, but she is much more consistent with a partner at this point and will require additional work to help polish her skills. She stands 18.1 and we anticipate her gaining at least another inch before she is mature. This mare is one that we think could be a cool show partner in the future with more experience; she wants to drive with her head up and ears forward- no overcheck required! She is also tested pssm1 n/n and could be an asset to many breeding programs. We would consider including a discounted fee to Tradewinds Benchmark or Tradewinds Flint with her purchase.
We are asking $6500 for Frannie and welcome any inquiries.
Tradewinds Miss Madonna DOB 5/4/2025 (Tradewinds Benchmark x DLF Miss Macy, by Cedarfarm Ontario)
Madi comes straight out of our 2026 summer show string! This stylish and pretty filly was first place yearling mare at the Iowa state Fair and rsv Junior Champion, before finishing her show season at the LaPorte County Draft horse show where she was 2nd place yearling mare and rsv. Junior Champion mare. We anticipate her maturing slightly smaller than some of our other prospects; in the 17hh range.
Madi is a fun filly to work with and thrives on having attention from her chosen people. She would likely be a fantastic partner for any future career, from riding to driven pursuits and should also continue to be competitive at halter.
This is one mare we had not intended to offer, but a growing number of Junior mares have pushed us to make a few deeper cuts than we initially planned. She is pssm1 n/n and would be a fantastic addition to a breeding program in the future.
We are asking $8500 for Madi and welcome any inquiries regarding her- offers would be considered to get her into the right situation.
Tradewinds Horoscope (Lucasia Zodiac x A&E's Heather Lyn, by Francois Rocket) DOB 3/17/2018
If someone were looking for a really nice mare to add to their program, Hopie is someone to consider! She is a fuzz over 17.1, with a fantastic temperament and an interesting pedigree that would complement many programs, both purebreds and crossbreds.
We showed her in her jr years at halter; Hope was 1st jr filly at the 2018 WPC foal futurity and placed 2nd as a yearling at the National Percheron Show. She was a very competitive jr horse and would probably transition to a fantastic youth Showmanship horse. She is broke to drive, but has primarily been used as a broodmare in recent years.
Hope is the dam of Tradewinds Herrick, as well as a few nice fillies; her 2026 filly by Tradewinds Flint was particularly nice. Hope was left open for 2027, but we would consider offering a discounted breeding to Flint with her purchase. She has been tested and is PSSM1 N/N.
We are asking $5,000 for Hope.
