Orie McCune’s family continues with his dream at Cedar Bluff Farm Cedar Bluff Farm is a three-generation cattle farm located in Jasper, Mo. Joan McCune-Wilson and her late husband Orie McCune purchased the first 80 acres of the farm in the early 1960s and completed the purchase of the rest of the section in 1980. They ran Hereford and Santa Gertrudis cross cattle. “We are living his dream,” Joan said. “He dreamed as a boy growing up of putting this section together and making it a livestock farm.” Orie passed away in 1992.

Suzanne and Mark, both retired teachers, still work part-time in the school system. Caleb teaches ag and serves on the board of directors as the president for the Braunvieh Association of America. Kelsey, a former ag teacher, teaches preschool and operates the farm’s Facebook page, and Molly is a junior high math teacher. Caleb, Kelsey and Molly also show the cattle, and Kelsey and Molly are advisors for the Junior Braunvieh Association. Together, they all work on the farm to produce quality Braunvieh cattle. Caleb and Molly started helping on the farm at a young age and bought a couple
