Prairie Ridge Farms LLC

Prairie Ridge Farms LLC is a Hereford cattle breeder in Princeton, MN, Central Minnesota near Minneapolis. The farm participates in national Hereford association programs and maintains routine health screening for bovine respiratory disease, Johne’s disease and other industry-recommended tests. Their cattle graze on rotational pastures throughout the growing season, and calves are gradually accustomed to handling to encourage calm temperaments.

Adult cattle have access to open barns with straw bedding, allowing natural herd interactions while providing shelter from harsh weather. The team keeps detailed pedigree records and often showcases various bloodlines at county fairs and livestock exhibitions. A focus on balanced conformation and docility reflects the farm’s long-term approach to sustainable cattle breeding. Owners apply generational farming knowledge to maintain resilient herds that adapt well to Minnesota’s seasonal shifts. Cattle are supplemented with locally sourced hay and grain blends throughout winter months to support growth and immune health.
