Holmes Ranch

Holmes Ranch offers Hereford cattle in Vernal, UT, serving the Uintah Basin near Salt Lake City through a spring-calving program.

Its bulls and cows are registered with the American Hereford Association, and the herd undergoes routine health screenings, genetic testing, and annual veterinary evaluations. Calves graze freely on open pasture with access to shade and shelter year-round, and daily handling fosters gentle temperaments and early social bonds. Pastures are managed to support native grasses and maintain soil fertility, reflecting a commitment to sustainable land stewardship alongside herd development.

A family operation tracing back three generations, the ranch balances tradition with careful herd selection and structural soundness. Each breeding season yields offspring noted for balanced muscling and gentle dispositions, traits that align with the ranch’s long-term breeding goals. Winter months bring sheltered feeding areas stocked with hay grown on-site, ensuring consistent nutrition and robust calf growth despite seasonal challenges.
