Mission Valley Farm

Mission Valley Farm, Chianina cattle, West Alexander, PA, is a breeder in Washington County in Allegheny River valley near Pittsburgh. It has been raising Chianina cattle for over a decade, following national breed registry guidelines for health screenings and genetic evaluations. The operation maintains records in accordance with USDA livestock care standards and participates in local farm bureau events.

Its cattle graze on rotational pasture roughly fifty acres in size, receiving regular health checks and seasonal hoof trimming to support mobility. Pastures are rotated seasonally to maintain soil health and forage quality. Calves experience daily handling from birth, encouraging a calm temperament and ease of movement. Since David Ealy founded the farm, emphasis has remained on low-stress husbandry, clear lineage records and structural soundness. Local buyers often note the herd’s consistent muscle development and appreciate the breeder’s transparency in sharing feeding and management insights.
