Kristin Fawcett

Kristin Fawcett raises Hereford cattle in Ree Heights, SD, serving Hand County and the James River Valley near Huron. She is a member of the American Hereford Association and her herd undergoes regular veterinary health screens and genetic evaluations to support sound breeding decisions. Calves start life in open paddocks with daily pasture rotations, gentle handling and quality forage to promote even growth and ease of handling.

Kristin’s program highlights quiet genetics and structural soundness, with feeder calves and replacement heifers consistently noted for balanced muscle and calm temperaments. In winter months, cattle have access to sheltered feeding areas stocked with local hay and mineral supplements, mirroring traditional Hand County ranch practices. Local farmers appreciate the farm’s sustainable rotational grazing, recalling healthier pastures and steady gains when discussing Kristin’s cattle. The farm’s modest herd size allows personal attention to each animal’s welfare and fosters positive interactions with visiting producers.
