Colonial Williamsburg Foundation
Colonial Williamsburg Foundation is a breeder of milking Devon cattle in Williamsburg, VA, in the Tidewater region near Norfolk. The foundation has been caring for heritage cattle under living-history programs for decades and follows breed registry health-testing guidelines.
Its pasture-based approach supports natural grazing and routine veterinary checks to ensure robust growth and gentle handling. Elaine Shirley and Paul Jeter oversee daily husbandry and ensure each animal receives individual attention from calfhood. Calves are raised alongside adult cows to foster natural herd dynamics and early handling. Through daily interactions and seasonal farm events, these cattle contribute to educational demonstrations that connect visitors with early American agriculture. The program reflects a commitment to breed preservation and offers a living link to colonial farm life. Stock levels are carefully managed to maintain genetic diversity and reflect historical breeding records from period-authentic colonial herds.
