Idalee Farm

Idalee Farm heritage shorthorn cattle operation in Jerome, ID is managed by Martin Lee on a family-run ranch in Jerome County and the Magic Valley near Twin Falls. They hold annual registrations through the American Shorthorn Association, carry genetic health screenings for dispersal and keep detailed lineage records to support breed preservation. Each pasture is fenced with wildlife-safe fencing and rotated seasonally so cattle graze fresh grass, while calves remain with their dams for the first months to encourage strong maternal bonding.

Martin Lee sources local grains for balanced feeding when grass is dormant and works with a local veterinarian for routine wellness checks and community outreach. Visitors often comment on the calm herds and attentive care that reflect decades of ranching knowledge passed through the family. With an emphasis on heritage shorthorn temperament and sound structure this farm offers a thoughtful approach to cattle stewardship.
