Frosty Springs Farm is owned and operated by James and Billie Cowell of Waynesburg Pa. The operation has a herd of Purebred Simmentals and a Commercial herd of Red Angus Cows. Frosty Springs Farm is primarily a Cow-Calf and Seedstock operation; with a secondary purpose of raising feeder calves for freezer beefs.
Frosty Springs Farm began in 1974 with a small herd of Hereford Cows that ran on a 47 acre farm. The Herefords were later crossed bred to a Simmental Bull.
In 1985 the operation sold the crossbred cattle and bought a small herd of Purebred Simmental Cows for Jamie and Alissa; James and Billie’s daughters to show. The daughters showed in 4-H and ASA Regionals and Jr. Classics until 2002. In 1999 Frosty Springs Farm expanded its acreage from just 47 acres to over 500 acres: with over 60 cow/calf pairs. Frosty Springs Farm began selling freezer beefs to 40 buyers over three states in 2006. Since Jamie and Alissa left for college; James and Billie have been working the cattle and managing the farm solely on their own, while both work off farm jobs. Frosty Springs Farm follows a Nutrient management program and manure storage practices set forth by the Conservation District.
