The Employer Our clients, Impact Ag operating as Wilmot Cattle Co, are a modern livestock business dedicated to productive and profitable cattle enterprises that use sustainable management principles to enhance their landscapes' ecological, social and commercial value. Established in 2008, they have expanded to encompass four properties across the highly productive New England region. Operating innovatively and collaboratively, these properties engage in a mix of breeding, trading, and 100% natural grass-finished enterprises. Committed to producing high-quality, natural grass-fed beef, our clients practice a regenerative farm management style that is free of grain, hormones, and antibiotics with a common goal of improving soil health over time. Wilmot is an exceptional property in the New England Tablelands at Ebor. Spanning 1,854 hectares of highly fertile volcanic basalt soils, it features a series of pristine, spring-fed natural waterways, including five waterfalls. This unique environment provides ideal conditions for raising cattle, with the operation trading around 2000 head per year. Woodburn is a 2,555-hectare beef breeding enterprise located north of Walcha on the New England tablelands. The property was purchased in 2011 with the goal of breeding homegrown, grass-fed beef. It features lightly timbered land with basalt and sandy loam soils. Currently, Woodburn runs 700 Angus breeders, with the option to trade cattle depending on the season.
