Dogwood Acres Farm

Dogwood Acres Farm raises Limousin cattle in Island, KY, Northern Kentucky near Cincinnati. The farm has been committed to breeding for years, following breed association guidelines and implementing regular health screening to maintain strong bloodlines and overall herd wellness. It participates in the American Limousin Association, registering each animal for full traceability and adherence to transfer guidelines.

Each calf is reared on open pasture with access to a dedicated calving barn and introduced early to low-stress handling, fostering a calm temperament. Owner Doug Everly draws on decades of local agricultural experience, emphasizing sustainable land management, rotational grazing and regular soil testing to support forage quality. The ranch’s hands-on approach and community-minded spirit have earned respect among area 4-H leaders and family farms for consistent cattle quality and even temperaments.

Calving takes place seasonally to align with natural grass growth cycles, ensuring herd nutrition matches environmental conditions. The farm’s pastures border native woodlands that provide natural shelter and seasonal forage diversity for grazing stock.
