Squires Farm

Squires Farm raises Highland cattle in SE Yelm, WA, serving Thurston County and the Puget Sound near Tacoma. Matt and Anna Squires have built their reputation on attentive breeding practices that emphasize temperament, maternal instincts, and sound structure across generations. Their herd lives on open pasture with access to a purpose-built barn, allowing calves and cows to develop strong immune systems while socializing in a family-focused setting. All animals undergo routine health screenings with a local large-animal veterinarian, and pedigrees are documented under recognized breed association standards.

Operating from a century-old farmstead, they blend traditional husbandry techniques with modern welfare measures to nurture resilient stock and maintain historical character. Calves receive daily handling from birth to foster calm temperaments and prepare them for diverse ranch environments. They prioritize regenerative grazing, rotating pastures to support soil health, invasive species control, and diverse forage growth throughout the growing season. With a friendly approach and hands-on guidance, Squires Farm fosters a welcoming atmosphere among neighbors and fellow cattle enthusiasts.
