Oakleaf Acres

Oakleaf Acres Hereford cattle, Menomonie, WI, is a family-owned breeder serving Dunn County and the Chippewa Valley near Eau Claire. The owners participate in American Hereford Association events and adhere to industry standards for genetic health and conformation, and all breeding stock undergoes annual hoof and eye evaluations.

Calves are raised in pasture-based environments and receive hands-on handling from an early age. During winter, cattle move to well-ventilated barns with fresh bedding, and their diet is balanced with local forages and minerals. They employ rotational grazing on native grasses, provide year-round access to clean water stations and shade, and monitor herd health through regular veterinary visits.

The farm dates back to the 1950s, reflecting a multigenerational commitment to sustainable livestock stewardship. Local reviews note the cattle’s calm temperament and uniform weight gains. Their approach blends traditional husbandry with modern record keeping to track performance and genetics.
