Johnstown Farm

The Johnstown Farm is a great livestock wintering property, which provides the feed base to winter and calve cows. The farm in Central Wyoming is located 23 miles west of Riverton, Wyoming just off Highway 20/26. The area is well known as a feed production area in Wyoming due to plentiful water supplies, productive lands, and mild, open winters. Situated on 200 +/- acres, the operation involves growing 1000 tons of alfalfa hay complete with two homes with outbuildings.
