About Pilaroc Farms

Remember What Great Meat Tastes Like What kind of crazy name is Pilaroc? RAISING CATTLE, PIGS AND KIDS…. Pilaroc (pronounced pile a rock) was a simple name we came up with in describing the land on the northern end of Lincoln County; nothing but rocks. When we first moved there, we couldn’t believe the amount of rock on the land and couldn’t imagine anything growing there but cedar trees and more rock. But with our backgrounds (both dairy farmers kids that have been in the agriculture industry our whole lives), we knew we could make something work. Pilaroc Farms was created for two reasons: 1. To provide you the best local meat-eating experience possible and 2. So that our children could be raised deeply-rooted in agriculture, just as we were raised. At Pilaroc Farms, we demand that every animal is developed as if it were going to be served at our own table: we want it local, we want to know that is was raised humanely and be not only sustainable, but regenerative, and we want the best quality meat available. The nutrition, the health, how we and our partners handle and manage the livestock and the precise genetic selection is what we hang our hats on. After a 2020 purchase of some family land, Pilaroc Farms now resides in southern Lincoln County, Tennessee. All of our Angus cattle, Berkshire-cross pigs and Katahdin-cross sheep are pasture-raised. That means they spend their entire lives on pasture, from beginning to end. The animals are supplemented with a local grain-based diet once they get close to finishing to allow for a truly flavorful eating experience. It’s wholesome, safe, quality beef, lamb and pork with no added hormones or antibiotics. We encourage you to come by and visit us at Pilaroc Farms. You’re more than welcome to see where our cattle, sheep and pigs spend their lives. You will probably find our children, Wyatt, Tensie, John Colyar and Imolee, out there scratching the cows behind their ears with one hand and a bucket in the other, so bring your boots…they’ll expect you to work.
