The Reed Farms operation was started by Jim Reed while he was in college in 1962. After Jim and his wife, Linda, married in 1965, they continued their passion for the breed in Green Ridge, Mo. The family operation is now 60 years old. Jim and Linda have two sons, Brian and Craig. The Reeds spent a lifetime dedicating themselves to the Hereford breed. They have helped other breeders host successful Hereford sales and market their Hereford semen and certificates, all while raising polled Hereford cattle.
