Renee Grove

Renee Grove, Hereford cattle, Princeton, KY, in Western Kentucky near Paducah. She has cultivated a small but well-established herd for more than a decade, participating in national cattle registry programs and routine health testing to uphold breed standards. Her selection process includes genetic evaluations and temperament assessments before breeding to promote longevity and docility in offspring.

The cattle graze on rotational pasture and receive supplemental minerals tailored to support strong bone development and maternal health. Early exposure to gentle handling helps calves build confidence and facilitates smooth transitions into show rings or commercial operations. With a background rooted in traditional farm stewardship and consistent positive feedback from regional livestock events, her program reflects a balanced approach to preservation of rich Hereford heritage. Offspring from her program have earned ribbons at county fairs and attract interest from both breeding operations and performance-driven buyers.
