RNR Farms & Red Angus

05/29/2026

This may be the biggest long shot EVER and I probably set myself up for failure big time BUUUUT, I’m gonna try anyhow.

My husband’s great-grandfather raised registered (polled) Herefords in southwestern Pennsylvania from around 1940 until maybe 1970.

My husband and I, raise red angus with Herefords thrown in for good measure. Everybody loves a baldy.

Ok, now, the long shot…ideally I’d like to see if I can’t find a heifer/cow out of stock that came from his grandfathers herd. If that doesn’t happen, even some paperwork on his cattle or possibly photos would still mean a lot to him.

I’ll post details below and if you need more or think you could help, please message me.

His farm is/was Maple Valley Farms but the old barn used to have Maple Valley Stock Farm on the side.
Herd prefix could possibly be: MV, MVF, MVSF.
All the Herefords were registered and polled stock.
I already called AHA and there records only go back to 1970.

I am aware how crazy this is but it would be an epic Father’s Day Gift and he’d really love it.

So, if you know my husband, keep it quiet. If I fail miserably on my quest, he’s none the wiser. If I succeed, he gets a really cool gift and some family history that has been lost.

🍝 MEATBALLS 🍝

Today was our last day of school which means I’ll have 4 hungry kiddos home all day until September so I spent the day prepping meatballs for quick meals.

I mix everything up in my kitchenaid in 6-8 # batches, shape with a cookie scoop and line cooking sheets with our multitude of meatballs. After a quick freeze they get vacuum sealed for long (hahaha) term storage.

Slow cooking in red sauce is our favorite way to cook them! It’s easy and pretty hands off, dump it and run.

The kids enjoy eating them:
👉🏻 Plain
👉🏻 Over Noodles
👉🏻 Over Rice
👉🏻 On Hoagie Rolls

Garnish with a little fresh parsley and shredded mozzarella 👩🏼‍🍳🤌🏻

You can also do 1.5 # ground beef and .5 # of ground pork!

The last bull leaves Wednesday and we are sold out of bulls for Spring/Summer 2026.

We may have one yearling bull available in the fall if we don’t decide to keep him but the more I look at him, the more I want to keep him.

We just want to say thank you to everyone who bought bulls from us this spring!

Words can’t express how grateful we are for your business and your support.

Thank you!!
