Melroe Farms

Melroe Farms is a Chianina cattle breeder in Gwinner, ND, serving Richland County and the Red River Valley near Fargo. Melroe Farms follows breed guidelines with registrations through national cattle associations, and it conducts routine health screenings, vaccinations and parasite control measures to support calf well-being and herd longevity.

Calves graze on open pastures and receive regular gentle handling to foster early socialization and trust. The farm’s breeding selections focus on temperaments suited to both family farms and small-scale operations. Animals graze on diverse forages through each season to support steady growth and resilience.

Each spring, calves are born in sheltered barns that offer straw bedding and protection from harsh winter weather. Owner Steven A Melroe applies rotational grazing practices to maintain pasture health and reduce parasite exposure. Animals receive balanced minerals and free access to clean water all year.
