Kevin & Yvonne Ryan

Kevin & Yvonne Ryan are Hereford cattle breeders in Garnett, KS, east-central Kansas near Kansas City. They have more than a decade of experience and maintain membership in the American Hereford Association, conducting routine health screenings for parasites, structural soundness, and genetic traits. Their herd remains modest in size to allow personalized attention and careful selection of breeding pairs based on temperament and structural balance.

Their cattle graze on rotating pasture systems enriched with native grasses, and calves receive daily low-stress handling to encourage early socialization. As a family-run homestead with generations of farm heritage, they prioritize sustainable land management and transparent record-keeping for ancestry and health. Visitors often comment on the calm nature of the animals and the Ryans’ commitment to balanced nutrition, winter shelter, and attentive calving monitoring. They collaborate with local feed suppliers to integrate mineral-rich supplements and work with veterinarians for fertility evaluations and ongoing herd performance reviews. Seasonal rotational grazing helps preserve soil health and promote biodiversity, reflecting their belief in responsible stewardship and long-term productivity of the land.
