Bodine Farms And Meat Market

Cattle at Bodine Farms have year-round access to hay planted specifically for livestock grazing, plus chopped corn silage, grains, and vitamins and minerals. Beef is typically dry-aged at least 10 days before custom cutting and packaging. No hormones are ever fed to the cattle. Antibiotics are used only when deemed necessary for animal health, and all withdrawal periods are strictly followed. Pigs have full pasture and hay access alongside a grain and vitamin diet. The farm raises both commercial and heritage hog breeds, including Mulefoot, Tamworth, Hereford, and Red Wattle, selected for marbling and flavor. Meat chickens are raised in houses with windows for natural light and perches for roosting, and are never fed hormones or steroids. Egg-laying hens are raised cage-free outdoors on a separate farm with access to grasses and grains, and are never fed hormones or steroids. Swales direct storm water to sediment ponds for filtration.
