Franklin & Christina Nash

Franklin & Christina Nash raise Hereford cattle in Wellington, CO, serving Larimer County and the Fort Collins area. They have been involved in responsible beef cattle breeding for several years and are active members of the American Hereford Association and the Colorado Cattlemen’s Association, following recommended health-screening protocols and traceability standards. The herd enjoys rotational grazing across well-managed pastures, with daily wellness checks and low-stress handling in a custom-designed corral system. Selection criteria emphasize structural soundness, maternal traits, and marbling potential to meet the needs of both commercial ranchers and small-scale herd owners.

Their sustainable grazing practices help maintain soil health and support local grassland ecosystems. A recent visiting rancher noted the Nash herd’s sturdy conformation and calm disposition. Prospects are offered year-round for bull and replacement heifer sales, complemented by straightforward guidance on pasture adaptation and herd integration. The family’s multi-generational background in ranching brings a blend of tradition and thoughtful innovation to herd management.
