Ivy Long

Ivy Long, Hereford cattle, Blairsville, PA, is nestled in the Laurel Highlands near Pittsburgh. The farm has raised cattle for over a decade with membership in the American Hereford Association and routine genetic and comprehensive health screening and fertility evaluations to support sound breeding decisions. A small family operation, it offers daily turnout on rolling pastures and carefully supervised weaning to encourage robust growth and calm temperament. The red and white cattle graze native grasses and receive individualized care in a climate-controlled barn during colder months.

Calves are handled gently from birth to establish trust and are introduced to a varied forage diet to support long-term resilience. Occasional participation in county fairs has earned recognition for animal condition and temperament. This focus on steady development and balanced conformation reflects a passion for preserving classic Hereford traits in a sustainable setting.
