Mini Acres Cattle Co

Mini Acres Cattle Co breeds mini Herefords and belted crossbreds in Mooers NY, Clinton County and the Lake Champlain region near Plattsburgh. Established in 2010, its herd follows breed association standards, and calves receive routine veterinary health checks. Each calf spends its first weeks beside its dam in sheltered paddocks before gradual herd integration.

Animals graze on open pasture with full barn access, learning herd dynamics and daily interaction with caretakers. The farm maintains a tradition of sustainable livestock care, balancing rotational grazing with nutritional planning and soil health practices. Visitors often note the cattle’s calm temperament and the owner’s willingness to share insights into animal husbandry.

Mini Acres serves families and small-scale operations seeking friendly, well-socialized cattle bred for longevity and adaptability. The operation offers an authentic glimpse into pasture-based cattle management on a family-run farm setting.
