Bohnview Farm

Bohnview Farm is a family-run operation raising Dutch belted and Lakenvelder cattle in Watertown, WI, southeastern Wisconsin near Milwaukee. Led by Ellen Bohn, the operation is registered with national cattle associations and follows established herd health and genetic screening practices.

Animals spend much of their time on rotational pastures designed for optimal grazing and are handled gently from calfhood to encourage calm temperaments. Breeding decisions are guided by both performance records and temperament assessments, aiming to sustain traits valued by small producers and hobby farmers. Many of their cattle trace lineage to herds noted for reliable milk production and sturdy build, reflecting a commitment to balanced selection goals. Farm visits are arranged by appointment, allowing prospective owners to observe handling routines and discuss individual animal histories. The farm’s commitment to sustainable grazing and minimal stress handling supports both animal welfare and land health.
