The Kaehler Family

The Kaehler Family is breeding Shorthorn cattle in Saint Charles, MN, Southeastern Minnesota and Rochester. It follows the guidelines of national breed associations, conducting routine health screening for genetic traits and disease prevention. The family participates in regional livestock shows to share expertise and assess bloodlines against breed standards. Cattle graze on managed pastures throughout the year, and calves are raised on the farm to ensure consistent handling and early socialization. Facilities include sheltered loafing areas and rotational grazing to promote hoof health and pasture sustainability.

The operation maintains a modest herd size, allowing the family to focus on individual welfare and balanced growth. Animals are known for a calm temperament and strong maternal instincts, reflecting the family’s emphasis on gentle stewardship. With its long-standing presence in the region, the farm contributes to local agriculture through careful breeding and transparent record keeping.
