"WE SELL BEEF; ITS WHAT'S FOR DINNER!"
Welcome to Backyard Bulls Farm
Our farm is located in the heart of wine country here in Geneva, Ohio. We are surrounded by wineries south of the Grand River and sometimes trail ride through the local vineyards. Although we have raised foals from the well-regarded stallion; Thunder our main focus is raising beef cattle. Our heard includes breeds of Hereford, Angus and Charolais cattle. The name "Backyard Bulls" originated because we started our farm with two angus bulls, who although bold and magnificent, were uncommonly well mannered. Ever since then everyone is amazed at the mild temperament of our bulls.
Being parents of two grown adult children and two new youngins', the main purpose of raising cattle is to promote work ethic, values and principles to the little ones! Cleaning the barns, feeding the animals and working with their steers to show in the Ashtabula County Fair makes for tough and responsible young minds. There is plenty of work to be done on the farm and storing hay for the winter is one chore that everyone really enjoys. It is a great workout and weight loss program. We bale somewhere around 2400 square bales each year of our own hay, which is fertilized in return from the previous winter. We handle our cattle as if they were part of the family. One calf was raised in our kitchen for a couple of weeks while she gained her strength from a difficult birth during the coldest winter. This gets them used to human interaction.
