About

Green Acres Cattle Company is owned and operated by Chris & Amber Paulencu.
We are located in Lamont County AB. One Hour East of Edmonton in the Andrew/Willingdon area. Chris has been around cattle all his life and mainly ran commercial Charolais and Charolais cross. So when purchasing our own farm in 2016 we did some extensive research into different cattle breeds and found that Gelbvieh had what we were looking for. That research payed off big motivating us to sell all of our Charolais cattle to invest in a calving ease breed that had the vigor to get up right away after calving and try to nurse in Alberta's harsh winters. Good udder, easy fleshing with natural exotic muscle mass and great maternal instincts is what the Gelbvieh breed has to offer. We wanted the ease of quiet animals that would gain weight quickly based primarily on a foraging diet without the use of any hormones and sell well at market. We also had an opportunity to purchase a small pure bred herd with quality genetics and we haven't looked back. The Gelbvieh influence worked very well on our commercial cattle adding extra pounds to the calves in the fall.
We now run Purebred Gelbvieh, Purebred Angus, Registered Balancers (Gelbvieh/ Angus X) and on the commercial side Gelbvieh /Simmental X. We’ve grown to have some tremendous foundation females in which we keep their progeny for future sires and dams, select animals available for purchase off the farm.
We are committed to give our buyers quality genetics and a superior animal. Our belief is to run quality over quantity and if females dont pull their weight theyre culled from the herd.
We welcome anyone interested to come by for a visit and check out our operation.
