Rachel Hamblen

Rachel Hamblen, Limousin cattle, Ocklawaha, FL, serves Marion County and the Ocala area near Gainesville. She has been raising Limousin cattle for more than a decade, registering each animal with the American Limousin Association and following recommended health screenings. Participation in local cattlemen’s associations and ongoing education in sustainable grazing support her commitment to responsible breeding.

The herd rotates across divided pastures shaded by oaks, and routine veterinary checks accompany careful weaning and early handling. Seasonal soil tests and tailored mineral mixes formulated by a local livestock nutritionist ensure balanced growth and pasture health. Calves grow up around farm activity and seasonal family events, nurturing both resilience and gentle temperaments.

A neighbor’s feedback highlights the uniformity of strong maternal instincts and easygoing behavior that make these cattle sought after for both home herds and small-scale farms. The property, purchased by her family generations ago, reflects a heritage of land stewardship and hands-on care.
