Tiana's pig purchase!

We wanted to add some different genetics to our small swine herd and Tiana wanted to get into the 'ownership' role with her barrow money from last year. We were able to buy two crossbred gilts from the Rozeboom Family from Roberts, Wisconsin. The gilts are out of a purebred Hampshire sow and a cross boar who is a son of Alien Nation from Lean Value called Alien Nation 12-2 who is housed at North Iowa Boar Stud. They really look like breeding pieces for making barrows and T is super excited to show some belted "oreo" pigs as she calls them. Thanks Kyle!!

Cattle Pictures

Well one may think this is just a hog farm from the posts so here's some pics throughout the past couple of years. The Shorthorn herd started with showing a few steers back in the day and then falling in love with the breed. We started in 1992 with a couple of older cows and started a herd. We will calve in 40 cows this spring with 6 more cows due for Fall calving. Once we hit grass later this month I will post some baby calf pics.

The white bred heifer is by Saskvalley Pioneer 126p and sold on the Minnesota State Shorthorn Sale to Jeff Stangland.


This is a 2009 steer by Jake's Proud Jazz times Byland Dazzler that we sold to Jake and Jenny Werner.



The roan heifer calf is also by Jake's Proud Jazz times RB Eagle 255. She sold to Colt Johnson at the 2009 Minnesota Beef Expo. Good luck showing her Colt!

Thank you Harringtons!!

We recently sold our first show pigs! Here are a barrow and a gilt by Olsen's Onyx and a white barrow out of our York boar and an Olsen's Superman female we call Charlottle!

Good Luck Kristen!
