We are a family farm dedicated to the production of row crops, hay, and healthy local beef. Our row crop fields grow corn, soybeans, wheat, and cover crops.

Improving the land, growing healthy crops and livestock, strengthening our community, and protecting the environment... Our family works everyday to apply the foundational principles of soil health and animal husbandry on our farms in Obion County, Tennessee. Our cattle graze perennial pasture and cover crops, turning the forages into fertilizer for our crops and food for soil biology. We also fin

ish calves and sell custom and retail beef in our community, which helps us add value to our cattle and strengthen the local food supply chain. We love the end result of this symbiotic system: healthy food for families today and a healthy future for the next generation.

We will be selling a really nice group of fall calving bred cows in the next few weeks. They are productive, easy keeping, and easy to get along with. They have been good to us and are ready to go to work for their next owner. We shared the details in this video and on our website.

Planting our crops into mature green cover crops usually goes really well. We work through any challenges because this practice is so beneficial for the farms we manage. But this spring, "the extra mile" turned into ten miles... We were rained out of the field so long, the cover crop died and laid down, making it *almost* impossible to plant through.

With the help of other innovative farmers, we finally found a solution that did NOT include plows, discs, hay balers, or matches. Thank you to everyone who helped us accomplish what we previously believed was impossible! Good friends help us overcome challenges, and good challenges help us grow. Today we are grateful for both!

When it FINALLY stopped raining, we were quick to get back in the field and beginning tackling our monster of a problem… planting corn and soybeans though in...

Welcome to Giffin Farms!

Our farm is like many others in our area. Most of Derek's time and energy is spent on the row crop side of the operation. A lot of our corn, soybeans, and wheat are grown in the same fields that his dad, granddad, and great-grandad farmed, beginning more than a hundred years ago. It is our hope to continue this tradition, and as we go, we'll look for ways to make it our own.

One way we are doing this is by reintroducing cattle to Giffin Farms. The best part is that we are creating a mutually beneficial system between our cows and our crops. Both sides work together to make each other stronger and healthier. We love the end result: higher crop yields and a greater opportunity to provide our community with healthy local beef.
