Faxon Creek Cattle Co

Faxon Creek Cattle Co is a Shorthorn cattle breeder in Belle Plaine, MN, located in Scott County and the Twin Cities near Minneapolis. Terry Morrison has been raising Shorthorns for over a decade and holds memberships with the American Shorthorn Association, ensuring all animals undergo regular health testing for genetic traits and structural soundness. Calves are raised in pastures with access to clean water and shelter, and daily handling helps them become accustomed to human interaction.

The operation’s focus on gentle temperament and careful breeding selection supports families and small farms alike. Visitors often note the calm demeanor of the herd and the transparent communication about each animal’s pedigree and health history. The creekside pastures are managed with rotational grazing to preserve soil health, and winter feeding relies on locally sourced hay. This combination of traditional stewardship and practical innovation delivers well-adjusted calves ready for a variety of agricultural settings.
