Carlee Farms

Carlee Farms is home to Hereford cattle in Marshalltown, IA, serving Marshall County and central Iowa near Des Moines. The farm has operated for over a decade, maintaining comprehensive health records, adhering to vaccination schedules and working closely with a local veterinarian.

Animals graze on rotational pastures and are sheltered in a renovated barn, with daily interaction to foster calm handling and gentle temperaments. As a multigenerational family operation, the farm values traditional husbandry and sustainable land management practices. Many calves have gone on to regional livestock shows, reflecting consistent quality in breeding and conformation.

Each breeding decision is guided by data on hoof health and maternal traits to promote sound, long-lived herds. Informal educational sessions are held for visitors interested in breed development and pasture management. Visitors note the farm’s relaxed atmosphere and attentive staff, qualities that support both animal welfare and customer confidence.
