Nick And Nikki Martin

Nick And Nikki Martin, Hereford cattle, St Johns, MI, Central Michigan and the state capital Lansing. Their operation follows American Hereford Association guidelines, and they conduct routine health testing for breeding stock. They raise cattle on rotational pasture and provide barn shelter to support low-stress growth, and attentive handling starts with calves still nursing to help them adapt smoothly to farm life.

On their family farm stewarded for generations, attention to genetic diversity and maternal health guides breeding decisions. They implement seasonal mineral supplementation and monitor forage quality year-round to maintain optimal nutrition, and calves roam freely across shaded pastures edged by hardwood forest. Night shelter features straw bedding to ensure comfort during colder months.

Local producers often note the gentle temperament and consistent beef quality of their animals, reflecting the Martins’ steady approach to livestock care. They share updates and insights at local agricultural fairs, engaging with a broader farming community.
