Jacob Gordon

Jacob Gordon, Hereford cattle breeder in Greenwood, Arkansas, has roots in Sebastian County and the River Valley near Fort Smith. He holds membership with the American Hereford Association and contributes to local breeding discussions at regional livestock meetings and educational forums. Routine veterinary exams are paired with genetic screening for common herd concerns, ensuring cattle meet recognized standards for health. Calves are nurtured on open pasture with daily low-stress handling to build resilience, trust and a calm disposition before joining the main herd.

The herd follows a rotational grazing plan across native grassland and accesses shade and shelter suited to seasonal temperatures. Gordon’s farm regularly opens for community workshops and youth visits, offering hands-on lessons in livestock care and sustainable pasture management. Generations of stewardship shape each breeding decision, blending traditional ranch values with a long-term focus on temperament, longevity and overall vigor.
