Paige Gaffney

Paige Gaffney breeds Hereford cattle in Barneveld, WI, in Iowa County and the Driftless Area near Madison. Her operation centers on registered Hereford stock with traceable bloodlines and includes routine health screenings for genetic soundness. With a focus on herd health, regular veterinary checkups complement DNA testing for common coat-color and productivity traits across multiple lineages.

The cattle graze rotationally on native pastures and are handled daily to foster steady temperaments. Facilities include spacious shelters for all seasons and clean feeding areas to support overall well-being. Family involvement in daily care and seasonal herd evaluations reflects a hands-on philosophy rooted in sustainable farming.

Calves remain with their dams until weaning to promote strong growth and social development. Several stock have earned recognition in regional shows, and local forage fed on mineral-rich soils contributes to robust growth and a balanced diet.
