LOV Mini Herefords at Red Barn Farm in Shelby Ohio, which is approximately halfway between Cleveland and Columbus, is a small farm raising Miniature Hereford cattle from some of the best Miniature Hereford genetics available.
We raise Miniature Herefords along with a few other beef cattle. We became interested in the Minis while attending steer shows with Logan and Marissa.
We have embryos for sale that will add value to any herd.
