Ledge Brook Wagyu

Ledge Brook Wagyu, wagyu cattle, Ellington, CT, operates in Tolland County and the Connecticut River Valley near Hartford. John Ridzon has been raising wagyu cattle for several years and keeps herd records in line with national association standards. The farm’s rolling pastures and shaded woodlands give cattle ample space to graze and shelter through changing seasons.

Calves spend early weeks in small groups and receive calm, regular handling to build trust. A mixed diet of fresh natural pasture and measured grain supports consistent marbling without added hormones or antibiotics. With a modest herd size each animal gets individual care, reflecting a thoughtful approach to both welfare and product quality. Visitors often appreciate the farm’s calm atmosphere and the chance to observe cattle grazing along a gentle brook. Sales depend on seasonal availability and careful herd planning to maintain high standards.
