Mini-Hereford/Aubrac Cattle

We have been growing our Mini-Hereford/Aubrac commercial cattle herd for the past three years. Mini-Hereford and Aberdeen breeds are well known for their higher ratio of prime cuts to less desirable cuts per animal, quicker finishing times, and lower environmental impact.  Aubrac cattle originate from France and are known to be a hardy, maternal breed with excellent capacity to adapt to climate variations and the forage available. Our target goal is a herd of about 20 cows, each producing one calf per year. Weaned calves may be sold locally in the Fall or carried through the following year for sale as grass-finished beef.  We sell by the quarter, half, or whole to individual consumers through our local butcher, D & J Meats.
