Tom Gerrity

Tom Gerrity and Emily Gerrity are Murray Grey cattle breeders in Saegertown, Pennsylvania, in northwest Pennsylvania near Erie. They have been raising Murray Grey cattle for several years and follow the breed’s registry guidelines for genetic screening, vaccination, and routine veterinary care.

Their herd grazes on rotational pasture, with access to shade and fresh water throughout the day. Calves are handled gently from birth and receive regular human interaction to encourage a calm temperament. Feed is formulated on site from a mix of grasses and legumes, supporting steady growth without grain reliance. This family farm emphasizes sustainable practices and soil health through careful grazing management and composting of bedding.

Several Murray Grey bulls from their herd have earned recognition for structural soundness at regional livestock shows. Tom and Emily share insights with neighboring farmers at county fairs and local agricultural events to support community knowledge.
