Patton'S Seldom Rest

Patton’s Seldom Rest is a family-run Limousin cattle farm in Hillsboro, OH, serving Highland County and southwestern Ohio near Cincinnati.

Steven Patton has guided the farm’s growth over multiple breeding seasons, refining selection standards and maintaining a personal commitment to herd excellence. It participates in established breed associations and follows recommended health testing for fertility and disease markers. The herd rotates on managed pastures with ample shelter and shade to support natural foraging and proper social groups.

The farm’s breeding program focuses on improving maternal traits and gentle temperaments across each calf crop, aiming for consistent calving ease. Calves receive daily interaction to foster calm dispositions and early socialization before moving to larger grazing areas. Long-term pasture management and careful record keeping help maintain soil health, water resource balance, and overall herd sustainability. Many local neighbors appreciate the consistent presence of well-mannered cattle that adapt smoothly to both show and family farm settings.
