The Oaks Simmentals

The Oaks Simmentals, Simmental cattle in Frankfort, KY, are based in Franklin County and the Bluegrass region near Lexington. With more than ten years of breeding experience, they maintain membership in the American Simmental Association and follow established genetic testing standards. Calving takes place each spring under close veterinary oversight, and all animals undergo routine health screenings.

Their cattle graze on well-managed pasturelands and are socialized through daily handling, fostering calm behavior around handlers and other livestock. The farm’s pastures occupy land once part of an early 20th-century homestead, reflecting a longstanding commitment to careful breeding and herd health. Detailed record keeping supports traceability of bloodlines and helps maintain consistent quality across each generation. Rotational grazing techniques support pasture health and reduce reliance on supplemental feed. Their involvement in local agricultural events offers opportunities to connect with other breeders and stay current on best practices.
