Famed Trumpy Holstein herd sold at public auction
Nearly 75 top Holstein breeders braved near zero temps to watch the oldest privately owned purebred Holstein herd in the United States sell at Trumpy farm near Clarno. The sale, with 85 cattle and 78 years of breeding, began about 11 15 am and continued through lunch as bidding persisted. The first animal, Trumpy Pride Fobes Piebe, sold for 390 dollars to Barmah Jule farm, Elkhorn, while the cow’s heifer calf went for 95 dollars. The event marked the dispersal of a herd long tied to Homestead bloodlines and signaled a new start for the owners’ breeding program.
