Hickory Orchard Farms We raise a variety of species that focus on quality not quantity! Pedigreed and pet quality rabbits are available at 8 weeks of age.

Our program consists of Hereford and Shorthorn cattle, black face club and replacement lambs, New Zealand and Standard Rex rabbits, brown egg laying hens, and quarter horses and TB's. Hickory Orchard Farms has been in the family for 5 generations here on top of Pifer Mountain in Tucker County. We have some quality cows we breed for spring calves and also purchase several stocker steers to graze th

roughout the summer. In the fall we offer the steers for sale to the highest bidder before they move on to fattening. A small dairy goat herd has been added with the potential of adding a herdshare program in the future, though this is still undecided at this time. The kids have began showing in ADGA shows with their registered Nubians and their newly added Saanens and are loving their new adventure. The kids have a rabbitry up and running with a focus on blue lined Flemish Giants, Standard Rex, and meat variants. Daniel offers horse training services, specializing in colt starting. These spots vary from year to year, and we are selective on which horses we take on. This is ONLY due to focusing more on our cattle, our own horses, and facility upgrades. USDA certified beef and pork along with whole and half chicken, whole rabbits, and duck are available for purchase by the whole, half, quarter, or cut! The poultry and rabbits are raised right here on our farm as are most of the beef. Those coming from other sources are held on our farm for several weeks prior to processing to ensure top quality products. Feel free to reach out to let us help fill your freezers! Heather serves as a livestock and equine judge and has been doing so since 2006. She travels throughout the state and even to surrounding areas to help 4-H and FFA members compete with their projects while helping them understand how to better their projects and more importantly, their showmanship skills for many years to come. She is looking into the steps needed to perform linear appraisals for the American Dairy Goat Association as a potential future endeavor.

And then there was 1. Born 1/26 as a twin, weighed 39 lbs as of 3/8, located between Parsons and Philippi. If she doesn't sell she may stay as a replacement she's that nice!

Congratulations Jeb Short, a first year 4H exhibitor, who will be taking this nice lamb to the Gilmer County fair!

The babies are arriving! 3 ewes down, 3 to go. Unfortunately one had a set of triplets that 1 didn't make it, and then the mama being her first time, we think stepped on one 😔 BUT! These 3 are doing well now! 1 had a rough start but thanks to a good friend, he brought him back to health while we were at wrestling in Summersville! Everyone, meet Briar, Donkey, and the new baby ewe that has been named yet!

Good news! Thanks to Chelsie, Emma, Kinsley, and Easton with Moats Overlook Farm, Paityn Clower was able to do some herd work and ultrasound her 6 ewes yesterday. All were confirmed bred with an estimated 10 babies between them! These bloodlines came from MSB, Shroyer, Quad K Farm, and several big name sites in the lineage. Her first and second picks are already taken, so if interested, let her know!

Big news folks! Changes are being made on the farm and hopefully it will be good. Here is what has been happening.

The dairy goats all have new homes with the exception of Solomon and Peter. If you know anyone wanting an ADGA Nubian adult or buckling, please send them our way.

Our rabbits did phenomenal at the Tucker County Fair and we are so pleased! So much so, Paityn added another pure rex doe and a rex cross doe, along with a New Zealand buck. We have a litter due any day now, and 2 due later in the month. We are down to our last Flemish giant, Jilly, who we are looking for a pet home for. She is 5 but in great shape and health, just needs a kid to love on her.

Sheep. Yes, I said sheep. Paityn has started her own flock of 4, which became 6 yesterday. SO many people have helped her get her own sheep breeding program started, and we are so grateful. Eric Kim Mullenax, Quad K Farm, Moats Overlook Farm, Alison Dillon Moats, Dr. Harvey, and I'm sure I'm missing someone. Anyway, she has 4 ewes bred for early/mid January, and 2 due I believe early to mid February (have to double check dates). Anyone looking for quality 4H or FFA lambs, please keep her in mind as that is her goal, to sell to other youth exhibitors. More pics to come when they come home from their boyfriends 🩵

We do have some round bales for sale. Some out of the field, some out of the barn. Prices vary so contact Daniel Clower if you're interested.

The Tucker Co Fair was a big success for the Clower Kids and we are forever grateful to their buyers! Meadow View Farm Supply, T***s Meat, Jim's All-star, Grant Co Bank, Elkins Southern States, Home Place Farm, Preston Farmers Market, and Dr. Jessica Harvey, DVM. Give these folks some thought when considering where to do your business!
