Russet Valley Farm in Hopkinton, RI, is home to our herd of polled Hereford beef cattle, where they are raised for sale live on the hoof to fellow breeders or for finishing and production on your own.
Contact us directly to find out about our latest offerings.
The 200-acre farm operation has been breeding polled Herefords, known for their quality beef, docile demeanor and ease of handling and calving, for four decades. Previously an Ayrshire dairy farm, it has been owned and operated by the Panciera family for more than 125 years in this rural, Colonial-era town.
Our cattle are pasture raised and rotationally grazed, supplemented primarily with hay. We do not use hormones or unnecessary antibiotics. As members of the American Hereford Association, we have both registered and commercial beef cattle. We primarily artificially inseminate our cows using carefully selected Genex sires.
Hay sales are a key component of our farm operation. We offer round and small-square hay bales, made of timothy, orchard grass and some clover. Work has started on improving the fields. First cut is usually in June; pick up or delivery.
Contact us for more information and pricing or to arrange a visit to our farm, centered at our pre-Revolutionary War farmhouse at 30 Panciera Lane. Thank you for your interest.
