Martella Farms

Martella Farms, Scottish highland cattle, Amarillo, TX, is nestled in the Texas Panhandle near Lubbock. Mitch Deforest and Michelle Deforest have been raising sturdy calves over the past decade, adhering to breed club standards and comprehensive health testing protocols. Cattle graze across rolling fields, receive hoof and dental checks, and benefit from daily interaction to foster calm temperaments.

The couple combines time-honored ranch traditions with modern pasture-based feeding to support natural foraging behaviors. They partner with local veterinarians for vaccination schedules and genetic screenings to promote longevity and disease resistance. Farm visits by appointment allow prospective stewards to observe herd health firsthand, and detailed breeding records trace lineage with clarity.

Originating from a small homestead several generations ago, the operation retains a genuine sense of stewardship and community support. Thoughtful care in a low-stress setting produces cattle that excel in both shows and homestead herds.
