Gp Herefords

Gp Herefords raises Hereford cattle in Clear Brook, VA, in the Shenandoah Valley near Winchester. They follow American Hereford Association guidelines, maintain detailed records on EPDs, and conduct regular health screenings for genetic soundness and overall herd health. Their herd runs on rotational pasture during spring and summer, and calves receive early handling to encourage calm temperaments.

As a family-run operation for more than four generations, they focus on breeding animals with strong maternal traits, efficient growth rates, and calving ease. Livestock have access to sheltered loafing barns in winter to ensure comfort and year-round welfare. They employ rotational grazing practices that promote soil health, forage diversity, and biodiversity across their farm. Bull prospects and replacement heifers are documented with detailed pedigrees to support both commercial and seedstock goals and performance tracking. Nutrition is based on high-quality forage and free-choice mineral supplements.
