Micabren Acres is owned by Michael A. Feist and Dr. Brenda L. Weierke. The name Micabren is formed by combining the names MIChael and BRENda. Michael comes from a farming and ranching background and Brenda had her first pony at the age of three. Michael's love of animals and Brenda's love of horses merged in 1999 with the purchase of their first Appaloosa.

They started showing at a National level in 2001 and have earned a total of 5 National and World Champion and Reserve Champion titles, and numerous Top Five and Top Ten finishes at the National and World level. The goal of Micabren Acres is to be one of the top Appaloosa Breeders in the country, and consistently strives to achieve this by selective breeding and purchasing of high quality Appaloosa horses.

The present facility was purchased in 2001 after outgrowing their previous place in southern Minnesota. Raising and showing horses is truly a family activity. Cullen, age 4 made his debut in Leadline at the World Youth Show in 2005 and Ethan age 2 is not far behind. Both boys are big helpers in the barn and love being around the horses.
