Spencer Creek Farms

Spencer Creek Farms raises Hereford cattle in Vandalia, MO, serving east-central Missouri near St. Louis. A multi-generational farm rooted in family tradition, Spencer Creek Farms is active in the American Hereford Association, follows recommended health-testing and vaccination schedules, and maintains pedigrees for genetic consistency.

Calves graze on rotational pastures, receive daily handling to support calm temperaments, and remain with their dams until weaning. Feeding focuses on locally sourced forage blended with mineral supplements matched to each animal’s growth stage and production goals. Open barns, shade shelters, and on-farm watering systems provide comfort through changing seasons, while handling facilities are designed for efficient movement and low-stress sorting.

Several cattle have earned show placings at state fairs, reflecting strong structural soundness and balanced conformation. Family-operated with a commitment to animal welfare, the farm blends traditional breeding practices with current standards in herd management and transparent record-keeping. Consistent quality has led to steady interest from neighboring farms and ranches in the region.
