Mindy Ballard

Mindy Ballard, Pineywoods cattle, Kentwood, LA, Tangipahoa Parish and the North Shore near Hammond. She follows breed association guidelines and participates in registry programs while adhering to health-testing protocols to maintain robust lines. Her Pineywoods cattle graze native grasses through a pasture rotation system, receive regular handling to become accustomed to farm routines, and have access to a barn with soft bedding crafted on the family property.

Mindy’s farm reflects generations of local agricultural traditions and a focus on gentle temperament and adaptability in various climates. Calves benefit from early socialization in small groups, fostering confidence and ease of handling as they grow. Buyers receive comprehensive health and lineage records alongside practical advice for herd management. Her approach emphasizes sustainable pasture management and respect for animal welfare standards that have guided the farm since its founding. Neighboring producers note the consistency of her calves’ growth rates and sound structure.
