The Jones family on their farm

About Us

The Jones Family

Raising cattle and children since 2001


In 2001, Randy and Beth Jones purchased land in Greene County, North Carolina with a simple goal: raise cattle and raise children. Both Garrett and Colleen grew up doing daily farm chores and showing livestock in competition, and the whole family has stayed active in North Carolina’s agricultural community ever since.

Over the years the operation grew from show cattle into a commercial beef herd built around high-performing genetics and meat quality. Today our beef is pasture-raised, all natural, and never given added hormones. Cattle raising runs deep in this family — our grandchildren are the sixth generation of cattlemen to grow up working this land.
