Gregg learned about using heavy draft horses for work on his homestead, and the rest…as they say…is history. He will never go back to light horses again! In a research paper that he wrote for college he learned the following fact: A regular tractor loses two-thirds of the energy it uses in the form of useless heat; a draft animal returns one-third of the energy it uses in the form of useful fertilizer.” He also knows from experience that -if they are well taken care of- the horses will enjoy working and look forward to putting their neck in the collar.
