Belted Galloway Cattle


Belted galloway cattle or 'Belties', are a heritage beef breed introduced into the US from the rugged hills and coastlines of Scotland and date back to the 16th century.  They are a medium sized beef breed, polled (no horns), and have a shaggy double coat that keeps them toasty warm in harsh winter weather.  Our registered herd is grass-fed and steers grass-finished. The breed is listed as “recovering” in the American Livestock Breeds Conservancy priority list.
   
Individual cuts of grass-fed beef are available from our stall at the Ithaca Farmers Market.  As well halves and quarters are available several times per year.  Contact us for further information.
