Kent Family Farm, LLC

Kent Family Farm, LLC is a reindeer breeder in the US heartland near a major city, focused on gentle temperaments and seasonal health. The farm has more than a decade of experience working with reindeer and follows guidelines from recognized husbandry associations. Every animal undergoes routine health screenings, including hoof checks and parasite control, under the supervision of a licensed veterinarian.

Herd members live in spacious paddocks with natural forage, move freely in wooded areas, and benefit from daily interactions that help build trust. Regular handling by all family members and staff ensures the reindeer remain calm and approachable during seasonal displays and educational events. As a multigenerational family run operation, the farm combines practical knowledge with modern welfare practices to create a stable and nurturing environment. Feeding plans include supplemental lichen in winter and pasture grazing in warmer months to support natural dietary needs. The farm stays current with research on herd genetics and welfare to ensure each reindeer receives attentive, individualized care.
