Wharf Farm

Wharf Farm, heritage Shorthorn cattle, UK and the British Isles near London, upholds a tradition of balanced bloodlines and conformation. Founded by Stephen Viccars over a decade ago, the farm aligns with breed society standards and schedules regular genetic and health evaluations.

Animals graze rotationally on nutrient-rich pastures, with shelters designed to offer comfort through all seasons. Daily hands-on checks and early herd socialization help nurture calm temperaments and strong maternal instincts. Veterinary partnerships ensure responsive care, from routine foot trimming to tailored nutrition plans.

Bloodlines trace back to original herds that emphasized dual-purpose traits, appealing to both small-scale milk producers and conservation-minded breeders. Calving seasons follow natural cycles and pairing decisions focus on longevity, productivity and temperament across the herd. Farm operations are documented through regular reports, and farm visits illustrate herd health, routine welfare procedures and facility care.
