Wild Mountain Farm

Wild Mountain Farm raises Wagyu cattle in Belmont, VT, in northwestern Vermont near Burlington. Ryan B. Smith and Ali Kenyon have been dedicated small-scale breeders for over a decade, maintaining active memberships with reputable breed associations and adhering to stringent health testing protocols.

Their cattle graze on rotational pastures blended with native grasses, and calves spend ample time socializing with handlers before heading to comfortable barns outfitted with soft bedding. This approach supports both physical development and a calm temperament, reflecting the farm’s commitment to balanced, stress-free husbandry. Over generations, Wild Mountain Farm has cultivated bloodlines noted for marbling consistency, and local diners often praise the rich texture and flavor.

Guests visiting during summer months can learn about sustainable forage management and witness calving season up close. As stewards of the land, the owners rotate crops and plant cover crops to preserve soil vitality and protect nearby waterways.
