Hartland Farms

Hartland Farms, Simmental cattle, Gasport, NY, is situated in Niagara County near Buffalo. The farm participates in the American Simmental Association to maintain herd-book records and follows recommended health testing protocols. Animals graze across rotational pastures on the family’s 150-acre grasslands, and calves are socialized from birth to promote calm temperaments.

Daily interactions and seasonal mineral supplementation support structural soundness and steady weight gains. Several of their animals have been recognized at county agricultural fairs for balanced musculature and gentle disposition. The team approaches breeding with long-term herd improvement in mind, focusing on maternal traits and structural integrity that align with regional farming needs.

Each pasture is rotated to optimize forage quality and soil health, reflecting the farm’s commitment to sustainable land management. This multi-generational operation balances traditional grazing methods with modern performance data to achieve consistent calf vigor and herd longevity.
