J & J Polled Hereford

J & J Polled Hereford raises Hereford cattle in Hartford, WI, in Southeastern Wisconsin near Milwaukee. Its operation follows American Hereford Association guidelines and emphasizes regular veterinary health testing for both breeding stock and calves. Pasture rotation and hands-on care allow the cattle to graze on diverse grasses while receiving daily observation to support growth and well-being.

Calves often remain with their dams until weaning, reflecting the farm’s commitment to natural rearing practices inherited from decades of family stewardship. Visitors note the cattle’s calm temperament and solid frame, traits that suit both small operations and larger grazing enterprises across the state. The farm maintains open communication with buyers and shares detailed pedigree records to ensure informed placement of each animal. During winter months, cattle have access to sheltered loafing areas and supplemental feeding plans designed to maintain body condition without abrupt dietary shifts.
