Marx Farm

Marx Farm, Scottish highland cattle, Mazeppa, MN in Southeastern Minnesota near Rochester raises a small herd through hands-on traditional stewardship practices. They participate in regional and national breed association events and follow recommended health screening protocols for calving lines.

Detailed record-keeping tracks lineage, breeding history, and growth rates, and veterinary specialists join annual and seasonal herd health evaluations. Their cattle graze on rotational pastures and spend nights in open shelters to maintain comfort and social interaction. Regular handling from birth ensures a calm temperament around visitors and farm routines.

Local feed sources and pastured grains complement grassy forages to provide balanced nutrition year-round. As a multigenerational farm, Marx Farm combines modern insights with family heritage to support genetic diversity and resilience. William Marx and Candace Marx draw on longstanding family experience to nurture each calf from its first hours of life.
