Butternut Acres

Butternut Acres breeds Hereford cattle in Birnamwood, WI in Marathon County and north-central Wisconsin near Wausau. The farm is a member of the American Hereford Association and has over a decade of breeding experience, with routine health testing for calving ease, fertility, and structural soundness. Cows and calves graze in rotational pastures, with access to open-sky barns and consistent early handling practices that foster calm temperaments and confidence around humans.

The breeding herd includes bloodlines behind several state fair champions, and the operation focuses on balanced conformation ideal for both beef production and showing potential. Calves are nurtured through on-site weaning and gentle acclimation to feed, minimizing stress during transitions and supporting steady growth in young stock. Sustainable pasture management, seasonal mineral blends, and regular soil testing ensure healthy forage and an environment that benefits both cattle and local ecosystems. Visitors often comment on the herd’s vibrant coats, gentle dispositions, and the sense of care evident in every aspect of farm life.
