Grass-Finished South Poll Beef – Join the Beef Waitlist

Our beef comes from South Poll cattle, a breed specifically developed for grass-based, regenerative systems. They thrive on pasture, handle heat well, and produce beautifully marbled beef without grain finishing.

We chose South Poll cattle because they align with our values: efficient grazing, calm temperaments, and exceptional meat quality — all while improving the land they’re raised on.

Farming Practices (short, skimmable):

  • Rotational grazing to support soil health
  • No feedlots, no confinement
  • Calm, low-stress handling
  • Raised entirely on pasture

Pasture-Raised Pork – Join the Pork Waitlist

Our pasture-raised pork is raised with the same care and transparency as our beef. Pigs are allowed to root, forage, and express natural behaviors — resulting in richly flavored pork and healthier animals.

We chose heritage-inspired, pasture-adapted hogs because they thrive outdoors and contribute to land regeneration rather than degradation.

Farming Practices:

  • Pasture-based living with rotational movement
  • No confinement barns
  • Species-appropriate diets
  • Humane handling from birth to harvest

A2A2 Jersey Family Milk Cows – Join the Family Cow Waitlist

Our A2A2 Jersey cows are raised for families seeking a gentle, manageable milk cow for home dairying. Jerseys are known for their rich, nutrient-dense milk, smaller frame, and calm disposition.

These cows are raised with hands-on care, making them ideal for families who value connection, transparency, and long-term animal health.

Farming Practices:

  • Pasture-raised with rotational grazing
  • Calm, family-friendly handling
  • Selected for temperament and health
  • Ideal for home milk production

Note:
Family milk cows are offered in limited numbers and are placed with families who align with our animal-care values.

A2/A2 Jersey Family Milk Cow FAQs

Are these cows A2/A2 certified?

Yes. Our Jersey heifers are selected and confirmed for theA2/A2 beta-casein gene, making them a popular choice for families seeking milk that many find easier to digest.

Are these cows bred or open?

These offerings are bred heifers, meaning they have been exposed or confirmed bred and are intended to freshen for their first lactation after placement with their new family.

Have they been milked before?

No. These are first-calf heifers and have not been previously milked. This allows families to establish their own routine and handling from the very beginning of the cow’s milking journey.

What kind of temperament can I expect?

Temperament is a top priority in our selection process. Jerseys are known for being:

  • Gentle and people-oriented
  • Manageable in size
  • Well suited for family and homestead settings

While every animal has its own personality, we prioritize calm, respectful handling from an early age.

What kind of environment are they raised in?

Our heifers are:

  • Pasture raised with rotational grazing
  • Handled calmly and consistently
  • Raised with a focus on long-term health and soundness

They are not pushed for production and are allowed to grow and mature naturally.

Will Butterfield Farms help guide first-time milk cow owners?

Yes. We believe placing a family milk cow is a relationship, not a transaction. We’re happy to provide guidance on:

  • What to expect as a bred heifer approaches calving
  • Transitioning a cow to a new farm
  • General care considerations for first-time owners

We want both the cow and the family to thrive.

Is this the right fit for our family?

Family milk cows are best suited for those who value daily care, routine, and responsibility. If you’re unsure whether this is the right step, we’re always happy to talk through expectations before placement.
