Maple Ridge Farm
Maple Ridge Farm raises Dexter cattle in Sydenham, Ontario, just north of Kingston. Run by Becky Williams and Mark McCrady alongside their sons, the farm has been operating from its current 90-acre property since 2011, with 83 of those acres actively used for agriculture.
The Dexters at Maple Ridge are raised entirely on grass through a rotational grazing system, where the herd moves through small sections of pasture — sometimes daily — using a movable electric fencing setup to ensure animals are always on fresh growth. This approach to Dexter cattle in Ontario is rooted in the farm's broader commitment to regenerative agriculture: when Becky and Mark arrived, the land had been depleted by years of overgrazing, and ruminants were chosen deliberately as a tool to rebuild soil health and fertility.
The choice of Dexter as the breed was not incidental. The farm operates across a 90-acre property where the cattle graze alongside pastured pigs and poultry, with the entire operation shaped around land stewardship as much as livestock production. Those looking for grass-finished Dexter cattle in Ontario will find Maple Ridge Farm listed with the Canadian Dexter Cattle Association.
