Paradise Valley Farm

Paradise Valley Farm breeds miniature zebu in Athens, Georgia. It has been raising cattle in the foothills of north Georgia near Atlanta for over a decade, participating in registry programs and maintaining routine health tests for each animal.

Hope Bennett ensures calves grow with daily turnout on grassy pastures and regular interactions to foster calm temperaments. The operation mixes traditional cattle husbandry with low-stress handling, housing adult breeders in mixed-age herds with barn access during colder months. Reviewers often highlight the farm’s attention to detail in feeding plans and the gentle nature of the animals, reflecting its commitment to sustainable farming and community connections. Its breeding goals center on sound conformation and consistent temperament rather than show ring pedigrees, appealing to small-scale farmers and homesteaders alike. Past calves have gone on to be family companions, grazing herd additions, or initial stock for those exploring alternative livestock.
