Meet Amy & Lee – Pasture‑Raised Meat Farmers in Wagener

Meet Amy & Lee – Pasture‑Raised Meat Farmers (Beef, Pork, Chicken & Lamb) in Wagener, South Carolina.

Hi, I'm Amy!

I'm the voice behind our farm’s social media, emails, and phone calls. I love sharing our farm life with you because there’s so much about cattle that people don’t realize, and educating others is a passion of mine.

I didn’t grow up around agriculture, but I’m so grateful to be raising my children in this lifestyle. Lee and I met in college, and I fell in love—not just with him, but also with livestock. I may not have known much in the beginning, but I saw the passion in his eyes for cattle and knew I wanted to support his dream of growing something bigger.

Fast forward to 2021 when we started selling beef directly to consumers—something I knew nothing about at the time but have since grown to love. Selling at farmers markets wasn’t part of my original plan, but now I look forward to each one, reconnecting with customers old and new, and sharing our farm’s story.

Beyond managing social media, I handle the farm’s bookkeeping, cattle records, daily herd checks, feeding, and, of course, cooking up recipes my family loves using our pasture-raised beef, pork, chicken, and lamb in South Carolina.

 Between chasing two energetic farm kids and keeping up with all our livestock, life is nonstop—but I wouldn’t trade it for anything!

Hi, I’m Lee!

I may not be on the farm as much as I’d like due to my off-farm job, but I’m still deeply involved, spending most weekends simply admiring the herds.

Back in 2017, Amy and I set a goal of reaching 80 momma cows. With relentless drive and determination, we’ve far surpassed that number—and have no plans of slowing down.

My love for cattle started young, inspired by my grandfathers—one who encouraged my dream of owning a farm and another who nurtured my passion for horses. Today, my focus is on building an efficient momma cow herd that produces superior calves, perfectly suited for Amy’s beef business.

Beyond the cattle, I’m passionate about being a good steward of the land. I believe in rotational grazing and no-till seeding, allowing the pastures and hay fields to naturally fertilize themselves while also supporting pollinators. For me, sustainable farming isn’t just a practice—it’s a commitment to ensuring the land thrives for generations to come.
