The name Beaverdam has a lot of meaning connected to it for me. Beaverdam consisted of several hundred acres of land that once grew corn, wheat and soybeans for our hog farm. We are now growing trees and grass, supporting a beautiful array of wildlife. It’s a real pleasure to hear Bob White Quail, and see the wild ducks, geese, and the Great Blue Heron in the stream of which the farm was named after.
My wife, Mary, and I spent our honeymoon night here at Beaverdam Farm over 50 years ago. It was a secure place where we raised our 4 children. They are now grown, raising families of their own. We’re fortunate to have them all living here, surrounding us with 14 grandchildren. This is a special place to a lot of people. You can see why I take the name “Beaverdam” very seriously. I wanted to be very sure that the products we intend to sell would meet high quality standards.
I’ve raised hogs and cattle most of my life. I also worked for a national premix company for 30 years. There I dealt with farmers and small feed mills covering a five-state area. I learned first hand the basics of good nutrition needed for an animal’s best performance and maintenance.
