History
Riverbank Farms started back in 1973 with a commercial beef operation using mainly simmental bulls. With our passion to achieve perfection in beef cattle that would work best in our environment, we purchased our first purebred simmentals in 1988 and by 1991 our herd was 100% purebred. We have been calving around 125 cows for the last number of years with 2/3 calving from the end of January to the beginning of March and 1/3 calving from mid April to the end of May.
For Sale - Bulls & bred Yearlings
Every year we keep the top 12 to 14 bull calves, mostly red bulls with a few blacks and a few born late to sell as 2 year olds. All bulls will be sold out of the yard by private treaty and are fully guaranteed and fully insured at our cost until delivered to your farm.
The bull calves are vacinated and weighed at pasture around the end of September and go back on the cows until the end of October when they get weaned and hauled home. The cows will generally come home 1 week later. We strive for structural soundness, performance, and breed length into our cattle. Our 205 day adjusted weights are generally over 800 lbs. All done on native pastures with no creep from good uddered females that milk.
We prefer that you come to the farm to view the bulls for yourself. However if this is not convenient for you, we are happy to send pictures and negotiate a sale over the phone, email, or text.
