Stone E Brook Farm

Stone E Brook Farm, Chianina cattle, Hersey, Michigan in northern Michigan near Traverse City. Tina Erbes has been raising Chianina cattle for several years and maintains American Chianina Association registrations and follows recommended health testing protocols. Animals are raised on open pasture and receive daily handling to support gentle temperaments, with regular hoof care and veterinary oversight. The farm’s roots in family agriculture go back two generations, and clients often note the calm demeanor of the cattle during visits.

Their focus on pasture-based nutrition and careful selection for temperament helps produce cattle suited to both show rings and small-scale farms. Chianina calves often display the breed’s signature white coat and sturdy frame, reflecting the farm’s commitment to type and temperament. Stone E Brook Farm participates in county fairs and collaborates with neighboring farms on pasture rotation to maintain soil health.
