Maple Breeze Farm

Maple Breeze Farm raises Milking Devon cattle in Westbrook, CT on the Connecticut shoreline near New Haven. John L. Hall III and Bonnie Hall bring over twenty years of experience and belong to national and regional breed associations with routine health screenings in place.

Their cattle graze on rotational pastures and barn accommodations reflect attention to comfort and social interaction from calfhood. The farm’s roots date back three generations, and a focus on gentle handling supports calves that adapt well to small-scale dairy and show settings. Many visitors note the calm temperament of the herd and the couple’s willingness to share knowledge on sustainable pasture management. Regular veterinary check-ins and a balanced pasture-to-grain diet support robust health and reliable milk production throughout the year. Open barn days have welcomed local families to learn about traditional farm life and connect with the animals in a relaxed setting.
