ABOUT US
Northern Legacy is a privately owned horse facility located in beautiful Northern Ontario. The farm, owned by Craig Fielding and Katriina Ruotsalo, started by breeding recreationaly some Paints and Quarter Horses. Now they are entering their fourth year of breeding warmbloods.
In 2007, Craig and Katriina purchased the Hanoverian stallion Color Guard (Eclipsed By Color) from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police horse sale.
This began a new path for Northern Legacy. With the purchase of this stallion and a handful of fine warmblood mares, their new breeding program was put in place.
Their first warmblood foal was born in the spring of 2010.
Northern Legacy Horse Farm welcomed 52 warmblood foals since the beginning of our breeding program.
Craig and Katriina are looking forward to a promising year in 2020.
Northern Legace horses have also been showing in the Hunter divisions on the Northeast Trillium Circuit, Nashville's Brownland horse show's, and Venice horse show's in Florida for the past few years with great success under the guidance of Cathy Inch, coach of Foothills Farm in Chelmsford, ON.
Some of the highlights include:
• Second year hosting two NEC trillium shows at our show grounds
• Eight year's hosting the Westfalen North American inspection
• Foaling season, followed by breeding season lots of nice warmblood prospects
• Bark Bus second year available to help local animal rescue groups with transporting animals in need from northern communities
• And much much more ...
