Welcome to the online home of Schilldale Holsteins at Tiffany Farms!

After David and I graduated from Cornell in 1992, we came to Tiffany Farms, which was basically an Eastern - now Genex - bred herd at the time.  We brought back a few cows we had acquired while at college.   Dave knew how to breed cows, so we did our own breeding, started classifying, showing locally, picturing cows, advertising, flushing, and consigning to Registered Holstein sales.  We have now developed a herd that has received the Progressive Breeders Registry award for nine consecutive years. We recently received our first Progressive Genetics Herd Award and have sold two bulls to Alta Genetics.
 
The owners of Tiffany Farms are Jack and Sue Tiffany.  The farm has been in the Tiffany Family since it was purchased in 1841.  Along with Hannah’s brother, John Tiffany III, they are the 6th generation to farm at this location. The farm is located about 15 minutes from Long Island Sound beaches and is about 30 minutes from the Foxwood and Mohegan Sun Casinos.  We invite you to take a look at the animals we are currently working with and welcome your call if anything sparks your interest!
