Bear Hammonds

Welcome to Hammonds Land & Cattle! We are a proud, multigenerational farming family based in the heart of central North Carolina. Our passion lies in locally-based and sustainable farming operations. We raise registered Irish Dexter cattle, known for their exceptional milk production and quality pasture-raised beef. Our cattle have been selected for their excellent disposition, conformation, superior meat quality, and milk A2/A2 genetics. Beef and dairy production are equally important to us. All of our Dexter cattle are registered with the American Dexter Cattle Association. In addition to our cattle, we produce delicious pasture-raised pork, all while prioritizing sustainable farming practices. We prefer the heritage breed, Berkshire pig for their slow growth characteristic and rich tasting pork. Lastly, you can't have cattle, swine, and pastures without good-quality brown egg layers destroying your flower beds. We are passionate about supporting small, independent family farms that prioritize caring for the land and livestock. To be transparent, we do actively participate in and support our family's 75+-year-old farm in Lumberton, NC, which operates a large-scale commercial cow/calf Black Angus and poultry operation. Join us on our journey to provide wholesome, high-quality products that nourish our community and honor the land we love. We're committed to delivering the best products and educating consumers or new growers along the way.
