M&Ms Furcreek

M&Ms Furcreek, Dexters, Saskatchewan, in the prairie region near Saskatoon, has been raising small-scale cattle for several years under Canadian Dexter Cattle Association guidelines. Maggie Tuchelt is committed to maintaining a healthy, genetically diverse herd through routine veterinary health testing and careful record keeping. All animals receive individualized care year-round, with winter housing in insulated barns and access to fresh water and quality forage. The farm blends traditional grass-fed practices with attention to maternal lines, resulting in a herd noted for sturdy build and gentle temperament.

Calves are born and raised on rotational pasture, gaining early exposure to farm life and social interaction within a calm family environment. Their approach balances low-stress handling with gentle daily interactions, helping cattle develop confidence during weaning. Each season the herd is shown at regional fairs, where several Dexters have earned recognition for structural soundness. Local smallholders and hobby farmers appreciate the breed’s adaptability, and one nearby farmer noted that young cattle acclimatized quickly to rotational grazing schedules.
