Brant, Ontario

Where the Racetrack Meets the Pasture — and Life Is Meant to Be Experienced.

Springhaven is the McCann family's working farm in Brant, Ontario—home to McCann Stables, McCann Cattle Co., and a growing collection of farm experiences, stories, and seasonal gatherings.

At Springhaven

One place, several trades.

The farm sits in Brant County, a short drive from the Grand River. Mornings begin in the horse barn and end in the pasture, and the year is measured in foalings, calvings, race meets and feed.

We keep this site as a working record: who's here, how they're bred, what they've done, what we sell, and what we actually use to do the work.
