Hummels Shorthorns

Hummels Shorthorns is a Shorthorn cattle breeder in Yelm, WA, serving Thurston County and the Puget Sound near Tacoma. It is registered with the American Shorthorn Association and follows regular health screenings and genetic evaluations. Their cattle graze on rotational pastures under veterinary supervision, receive nutrient-balanced feed, and daily hands-on care to ensure calm, well-adjusted animals.

Year-round pasture management is complemented by winter shelter in well-ventilated barns and routine hoof care to support herd health. Emphasis on early socialization helps the herd thrive in both pasture and handling facilities.

Nestled on fertile lowland fields, the farm’s open-range grazing and seasonal rotational system support soil health, pasture renewal, and local biodiversity. Hummel John draws on traditional farm values to maintain a lineage known for hardiness and balanced temperaments. Their approach has earned praise from local beef producers for consistency and reliability.
