Meet your Farmers

Amy - Farm Manager

I am about 95% of the time the voice behind the farm's social media accounts, email, and phone. I enjoy sharing our farm life with you as there is so much that people do not realize about cattle that I love to educate. I didn't grow up around agriculture, but I absolutely love being able to raise my children in this lifestyle. Lee and I met in college; I fell in love both with him and livestock. I may not have known what I was doing but I could see the passion in his eyes for cattle and I wanted to support him in his dreams to get bigger. Fast forward to 2021 when we first started selling beef direct to consumer to which I knew nothing about but have since come to love it. Selling at farmers markets was never something I had envisioned but I look forward to ever market, reconnecting with new and old customers and sharing our farm story. Other than being behind SM I’m also responsible for the farm books, keeping the cattle records, riding the cow herds daily, feeding cows, as well as cooking and sharing recipes that my family enjoys using our farm raised beef, pork, chicken, and lamb.  And not to mention chasing two very energetic farm kids and looking after all these crazy livestock, I've got a full-time job! It’s a busy life but it’s the life that I love.

Lee - The boss behind the scenes

Lee isn't as present with the farm as much as he'd like to be as he works on off the farm job but he is very much involved spending most of the weekends just gazing at the herds.  In 2017, one of Lee and Amy's goals was to have 80 momma cows.  With a drive and determination, we have well surpassed that goal with no intention of slowing down.   Growing up, Lee visited with his grandfathers - one encouraging his passion to own cattle and a farm of his own one day and the other driving his love for horses.  Lee's passion is to have an efficient momma cow herd that grows superior calves that feed out well for Amy's beef business.  Other than the cows, Lee is an amazing steward of the land and believes heavily in rotational grazing and no-til seeding the pastures and hay land in way that they fertilize themselves and nurture the surrounding pollinators. 

Madison - Herd Manager

Madison came to us in October of 2023. We couldn't ask for a better employee - takes initiative to do what needs to be done without asking what to do next; she cares for the cattle; has great ideas on how to work efficiently; never backs down from a challenge.  Madison has a desire to grow her own herd of cattle which we are happy to help get her started.  Mrytle is Madison's first cow which she hand-picked because of her unique personality.  Sometimes it can be difficult to get a picture of Mrytle as she's more than likely got her head in the feed bunk or in a bucket of cookies!
