Vonforell Ranch

Vonforell Ranch is a Simmental breeder in Wheatland, WY. The ranch has been raising cattle for over fifteen years, maintaining active membership in the American Simmental Association and following recommended genetic and health screening protocols. Animals graze on open pastures, and calves are socialized early to ensure steady development.

Nestled in Platte County and southeastern Wyoming near Cheyenne, Vonforell Ranch balances traditional ranching methods with careful record keeping. Its foundation herd traces back to select bloodlines known for maternal strength and growth rates. Regular hoof and veterinary checks support the herd’s wellbeing and reflect a steady focus on long-term sustainability.

The family-run operation provides personalized care through each stage of growth, with calving season timed to give cows access to lush, nutrient-rich spring grasses. Facilities include sheltered loafing sheds and a handling facility designed for calm, low-stress interaction with both cattle and ranch staff.
