Our Story

Colin & Ann Hunter moved from Wales to Canada in 2004 with their 3 children and bought a 1300 acre farm in the RM of Riverdale which is located between Rivers and Rapid City, Mb.

We operate a commercial 140 head cow/calf operation and run about 400 ewes. Our cows calve towards the end of March, and depending on the weather we either bring them in and calve them in our purpose built barn or calve them out on pasture. Our ewes, lamb in batches starting in December through to August.

Our livestock is fed farm grown forage - hay is the main feed source along with our own grain supplemented with salt blocks, vitamins and minerals.

All our animals are vaccinated and dewormed, and antibiotics are only given to sick animals. We don't use any form of hormone growth supplements.

We practice low stress handling of our livestock which includes moving cattle with horse's and when it comes to processing we haul our own animals to a small local processing facility to help reduce stress.
