About Us
Stoner Creek Farm is owned and operated by Mike and Leisha Holzknecht.
I started raising Tennessee Walkers in 2000, with the help of my husband, Mike. My dream had always been to raise horses, but until I was introduced to the Tennessee Walking Horse in 2000, it hadn't become a reality. And with Mike's help I am now living my dream!! I thank God for my life, and I count my blessings!!
We have around 350 acres, with only about 100 in pasture, the rest is woods, 40 of what's clear has been leased for corn. We have made a few trails that we really enjoy and love to share if you don't mind up and down and around hillsides. :)
We also love to travel with our horses and visit our friends! So far, we've been to IL, WY, MI, CO, TN, NC, NM, IN, FL, MO, and OH with our horses, and of course, all kinds of places here in our beautiful KY. Check out the TRAIL SCENES page for photo's of some of the places we've been!
If you're ever in the area give us a call! We can take a drive thru our pastures, hang out in the barn, or grab a cup of coffee/tea whichever you prefer, and share horse stories!! Happy Trails!
![Lily is the daughter of a well known stallion in this area, his name is Skeeter. If you just mention Skeeter, most people know who you are talking about. The story is that a long time ago when papers used to be switched by dishonest owners,Skeeter's papers were switched with another stallion, because Skeeter had a severe injury to his hind leg that prevented him from showing. He is supposedly a grandson of Merry Go Boy, an older gentleman told me he had seen his papers before they were switched. Regardless of his lineage, he is an outstanding stallion. He has been retired to pasture and has a couple of mares to keep him company. Good for you, Skeeter! RHBAA papers put him in his 20's, but it was always said he was probably a few years older than what was written down.](http://d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/s:bzglfiles/u/53376/18ecbfbb63211fae4651ffb6417d8814b9b12c84/original/2101067.jpg/!!/b%3AW1sic2l6ZSIsIjM1MHciXV0%3D/meta%3AeyJzcmNCdWNrZXQiOiJiemdsZmlsZXMifQ%3D%3D.jpg)
