Alderbrook Grange

Alderbrook Grange is an Irish kerry cattle breeder in Sooke, BC on Vancouver Island near Victoria. It has maintained a registered herd with provincial cattle associations and follows routine health screening protocols overseen by a local veterinarian.

The operation uses rotational grazing across meadow pastures to mimic natural foraging patterns and supports calves by encouraging regular social interactions. Animals are housed in weather-sheltered loafing areas and receive supplemental hay during winter months to ensure consistent nutrition. Calves are introduced to regular handling and grooming early on, which fosters their trust and ease during routine checkups.

Owner Amber Rowse-Robinson brings practical experience in livestock stewardship, observing individual temperaments to guide breeding decisions and encourage calm dispositions. Community feedback often highlights the gentle nature of the cattle and the farm’s transparent approach to sharing animal health records with prospective growers. The farm’s rolling fields have supported livestock production for decades, providing a stable environment that blends tradition with attentive daily care.
