Hannah Barton

Hannah Barton is a Shorthorn cattle breeder in Barclay, MD on the Eastern Shore of Maryland near Dover. She works with the American Shorthorn Association, maintains traceable lineage records, and follows recommended health-screening protocols for fertility and foot health.

All breeding animals undergo genetic testing to support disease prevention and maintain breed standards. Her cattle graze on rotational pastures and calves are socialized from birth to ensure calm temperaments and strong herd bonds. Calving pens are monitored daily in spring to ensure timely care.

Hannah collaborates with local 4-H participants to prepare young cattle for fairs and offers insights on pasture management. Her farmstead prioritizes soil health and sustainable practices to support grass-fed development. Their cattle yield lean beef with consistent marbling and are known for a gentle disposition, while shelter barns are cleaned daily to protect animals from extreme weather.
