Gary Loftin

Gary Loftin breeds Hereford cattle in Glade Park, CO, Mesa County and the Western Slope near Grand Junction. He has been raising registered Hereford stock for over 15 years and holds membership in the American Hereford Association and regional cattle breeders groups. The breeding herd grazes on native grasslands with access to shade, shelter and seasonal paddocks that change throughout the year. Each animal receives routine health testing and daily attention in a pasture-based setting that emphasizes stress-free handling.

Socialization with family members and regular herd evaluations support both temperament and genetic consistency. Calves often follow daily farm routines and learn in low-stress environments before moving to buyer pastures. Gary values feedback from neighboring ranchers who note the herd’s solid structure and calm disposition. The farm traces its roots to local ranching heritage and combines time-honored methods with careful record keeping.
