Nestled in the rolling hills of scenic Warren County, Missouri, Falling Timber Farm is named after the creek that runs through it.  The farm lies just north of the Missouri River at Marthasville.  It has been in the family for over 100 years and for nearly three decades, FTF has been intent on making a lasting contribution to the Polled Hereford breed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Our 180 cow herd is the heart of our diversified farming operation.  The cattle have been selected for the last 30 years for performance traits as well as some non-quantitative traits such as teat size, pigment, disposition and soundness.  FTF’s focus has always been on balanced trait selection and we have not chased the fads of the show ring, although we have bred many show winners over the years.  The main focus is on being a seedstock supplier for the beef industry.

    

We consider this website a chance for a short visit with you. You are always welcome to stop by in person!  Feel free to contact us at anytime with questions about the availability of breeding stock.
