Stamford Museum

Stamford Museum & Nature Center maintains a small herd of Randall Lineback cattle at Heckscher Farm, its working farm campus in Stamford, Connecticut, about 35 miles northeast of New York City. Victoria Jaffery serves as Assistant Director of Education and Heckscher Farm, overseeing the animals and the agricultural programs built around them.

The Randall Lineback cattle here are part of a decades-long commitment to heritage breed conservation, with the farm's herd representing one of the rarest bovine breeds in North America. Those interested in Randall Lineback cattle in Connecticut will find the program rooted in public education as much as husbandry, with the animals living on a 10-acre working farm set within a 118-acre property that includes open pastures, historic barns, and an organic garden.

The farm has operated continuously since receiving its first Heckscher Foundation for Children grant in 1955, growing from a small dairy operation into a broad heritage livestock program. The Lineback cattle share the grounds with other rare breeds, and the herd's care reflects the institution's wider mission of preserving agricultural heritage for future generations.
