Kellstadt Farm

Kellstadt Farm’s Hereford cattle in Brimfield, IL, are nestled in the Illinois River Valley near Peoria. They adhere to guidelines from national cattle associations, maintain membership in local cattlemen’s groups, and conduct regular health screenings to support resilient bloodlines. Calves spend their early weeks grazing lush pastures, moving through rotational paddocks with daily turnout and occasional shelter in straw-bedded pens during colder months.

The farm occupies rolling fields and reflects a long-standing family tradition in cattle husbandry. Each cow and calf pair receives individualized monitoring from birth through weaning, following consistent weight checks and routine hoof inspections. Visitors often remark on the herd’s calm demeanor and the attentive stewardship evident in every fence line and feeding trough. Grazing stands are supplemented during midwinter months with high-quality onsite hay, a corn-based feed, and a balanced mineral mix to promote steady growth and reproductive health.
