Babcock Farms

Babcock Farms is a Hereford cattle breeder in Mauston, WI, in Juneau County and the Driftless Area near La Crosse. The farm follows established livestock care practices and participates in routine health testing recommended by the American Hereford Association. Calves are raised on rotational pastures and have access to shelter during extreme weather, with daily handling to encourage calm temperaments.

A family operation for more than two decades, the farm has earned a reputation for steady weight gains and consistent frame scores. One local reviewer highlighted the herd's gentle nature and balanced nutrition managed through rotational grazing. Their breeding program emphasizes structural soundness and a calm disposition to support various production systems. Yearlings are grouped by age and managed with targeted mineral supplementation to maintain herd health. Natural grasses form the basis of the diet and hay is provided from the farm's own meadows during winter months.
