Full Circle Farm

Full Circle Farm breeds miniature Hereford cattle in Fostoria, OH, northwest Ohio near Toledo. With several years of breeding experience, the farm follows industry-standard health screenings, including genetic testing, and coordinates regular checkups with area veterinarians.

The farm takes part in county fairs and community events to share knowledge of miniature Hereford cattle and receive feedback from fellow breeders. The farm’s cattle graze rotationally on well-managed pastureland, where soil health and forage diversity support natural growth. Gary Strausbaugh and his family provide daily hands-on care, ensuring each animal is socialized and accustomed to gentle handling.

Calves are introduced to halter training early, which helps them adapt smoothly to small-acreage homesteads. Practices such as crop rotation and composting reflect a commitment to sustainable land stewardship alongside livestock care. Prospective buyers appreciate the balanced structure and steady growth typical of their miniature Hereford stock, a quality that suits both newcomers and seasoned small farmers.
