Brookview Farm is a 600 acre cow/calf and grass finishing farm located 6 miles east of Lexington Kentucky on the Clark and Fayette County line. The farm is owned and managed by a family partnership between, Monnie Gay Long, her son Jacob Douglas Gay Owens, his wife Jenny Owens and their two sons Walker and J. Owens. In 2006, Brookview began a new chapter in its’ rich history with the acquisition of 15 registered Devon heifers and a young registered Devon bull (Lakota’s P116) from the Lakota Ranch in Virginia. Since then, they have added more registered stock as well as expanding into a herd of commercial Devon females.
Brookview Farm feeds only grass and hay in its operation, using rotational grazing in the management of its pastures. We never use antibiotics, steroids or added hormones in animals designated for the finishing program. Steers in the finishing program are marketed under the name Brookview Beef, which was founded in 2009 by the Owens family.
Ultrasound data is used as a tool for the selection of only the best animals from our herd for replacement heifers, bull prospects and finishing animals as well as the tried and true visual evaluation of herdsman John Morgerson, who has over 40 years experience with cattle at Brookview Farm. Our goals are to breed cattle of exceptional value, not only for the expanding Devon herds of America and the consumer of American beef but also for those wanting to improve their existing cattle herds by the introduction of Devon genetics. Please call anytime for inquiries and feel free to stop in for a visit.
Thanks for your interest in our farm! We look forward to serving you!
Happy Grilling,
Douglas & Jennifer Owens
