Gold Nugget Farm

Gold Nugget Farm Hereford cattle operation, Stanley, NY, is nestled in Yates County and the Finger Lakes near Rochester on gentle rolling hills for rotational grazing. The herd is registered with breed associations, and each animal receives routine health screenings, including vaccinations, fertility evaluations, and hoof trimming under veterinary guidance. Cattle enjoy seasonal pasture rotations across mixed-grass meadows and receive early, hands-on handling to promote calm dispositions and ease of management.

Gold Nugget Farm has raised Hereford cattle for multiple generations, blending traditional husbandry techniques with modern welfare standards to support balanced growth and strong conformation. Housing provides clean, ventilated shelters during winter and access to shade structures during summer months, ensuring hydration and comfort. Owners draw on family farm traditions to maintain low-stress environments, offering individual attention to calves from birth through weaning. Planning for spring calving, they emphasize strong maternal traits, easy calving records, and genetic selection focused on longevity and feed efficiency. Visitors and local producers note the farm’s thoughtful approach to nutrition, animal welfare, and transparent record-keeping, reflecting a genuine commitment to herd health.
