Lura Limousin

Lura Limousin, Limousin cattle in Delavan, MN, are located in Faribault County and southern Minnesota near Minneapolis. Mark Willette and Sharilyn Willette have been raising Limousin cattle for more than a decade and maintain a small family herd registered with the American Limousin Association. Their breeding program emphasizes sound structure, moderate frame and robust health, with annual screenings for key genetic conditions.

They follow balanced nutrition protocols and collaborate with local veterinarians to tailor preventative care for each animal. Calves are raised on pasture with access to sheltered paddocks and receive daily handling to encourage calm temperaments and easy integration into new herds. Rotational grazing supports soil health and steady growth while their cattle have earned ribbons at regional livestock shows. Prospective breeders appreciate the farm’s transparency and respect for the animals’ natural behaviors. The Willettes draw on multi-generational farm traditions to nurture herds that balance performance, temperament and long-term adaptability.
