Fall 2020 – Red Hill Farms                  Commercial Bred Heifers
            Heritage Family Farm (Franklin, KY)

        Kelly Smith and his family operate spring and fall calving herds in Simpson County,
        Kentucky. For over two decades, Kelly was involved in a purebred seedstock operation.
        However, for the last 20 years, he and his family have dedicated themselves to producing
        commercial cattle, with an emphasis on quality replacement females. Heritage Family Farm
        has been on the Red Hill program for several years, utilizing Red Angus and SimAngus
        bulls, as well as semen on many of the Red Hill herdsires.

        The Smith operation is a pasture-based operation that has challenged its cow herd through
        generations of only pasture and limited hay feeding. This unique environment and manage-
        ment scheme is one that tends to identify lower maintenance females with superior fertility,
        and eliminates those with inherent problems. Therefore, heifers and cows purchased from
        the Smith Family have proven to be environmentally adaptable..

        The goal of HFF is moderate-sized, easy-fl eshing, and easy-to-manage cattle, believing that
        an effi cient and low maintenance cow herd is the key to profi table commercial production.
        Other important factors that are emphasized by the Smith family include calving ease,
        udder quality, slick hair type, structural soundness, and superior disposition.

        Heritage Family Farm currently markets steers and heifers, not used as replacements, with
        grass-fi nishing beef operations in the northeast. Kelly is offering a high-quality group of
        bred females to calve in the spring. It is uncommon to fi nd heifers of this genetic level for
        sale.
