About
Putnam Beef Farm
Our Farm
Our cattle farm in Paint Lick, KY is a source of pride for us. We have expanded our herd and are dedicated to producing top-quality beef from our cows. Our family of five, along with our neighbor Mason, deeply cherish this land and the animals that roam and graze upon it.
Our Story
​
First-generation farming may not be suitable for everyone, but it's a perfect fit for us. We were blessed to purchase this land in Paint Lick, and from the moment we set eyes on it, we knew it was meant to be our home. The farm had no house, only a barn and a breathtaking landscape. When we moved here, our kids were 5 and 3 years old. We actually lived in a bus within the barn as we constructed our home (for 2 years!). It was during this period that we truly connected with the land and our animals. Our children actively participated in all aspects of farming, and we appreciate the opportunities it has provided.
With three kids now, we continue to cherish these experiences. We have not only grown crops but also cultivated a lifestyle that instills resilience, accountability, and the satisfaction of hard work.
The kids have grown up with dirt under their nails and an understanding of where their food comes from. We have also become part of a wonderful community of fellow farmers and neighbors.
As we look around our farm, we feel an immense sense of pride and fulfillment. This journey has been challenging, but it's also been incredibly rewarding. We wouldn't trade it for anything.
