Sandbanks Farm

Sandbanks Farm, Milking Devon cattle, Kimbolton, OH, southeast Ohio near Zanesville. Brandon Hill has raised Milking Devon cattle for over a decade with membership in the American Milking Devon Cattle Association and routine health testing. The herd grazes rotationally on deep-rooted grasses and native legumes, fostering resilience and a calm disposition.

Sandbanks Farm prioritizes hands-on care from calfhood through maturity, socializing young stock alongside family and livestock guardian dogs. Each calf spends time in open-air loafing barns before joining pasture groups, supporting stress-free growth. Its registered cattle have earned ribbons at county fairs, reflecting a dedication to structural soundness and fresh dairy production. The farm’s milk, known for rich butterfat levels, is sought by local cheesemakers for artisanal batches. As a family-run operation on historic pastureland, it balances heritage conservation with modern welfare practices, and visitors note clear communication and transparent breeding information in their feedback.
