Welcome to Jenkins Farms
Who We Are
Jenkins Farms is a family farm owned and operated by David and Catherine Jenkins. Aside from our family, we share the farm with our half-jacks, a few livestock guardian dogs, a couple of donkeys and our elderly horse.
Where We Are
The farm is located in northern Meriwether County on a sleepy dirt road just one hour south of bustling Atlanta. Although, we may be a bit biased, we are truly blessed to live on one the prettiest farms in the country.
What We Produce
We have three main enterprises at Jenkins Farms: Angus cattle, Kiko goats and high quality Bermuda hay. David also operates a portable sawmill. Check out our individual page for more information on each enterprise.
Why We Do It
David grew up farming and found out he couldn’t get away from it. After a career in the Army flying Chinook helicopters and multiple combat tours in Iraq and Afghanistan he and his wife Cat found an old homestead that needed some work. David is a 5th generation farmer and his descendants trace their land holdings back to treaties with native Americans. In fact, David inherited the foundation Kiko goat herd from his father. David continues to serve his community by flying helicopters with an air ambulance company.
Cat met David while serving in the Army. Cat’s family also had a history of farming but her dad got a scholarship so he would never have step foot in a chicken house again. Since getting into farm life Cat has put her horticultural gloves on by starting an orchard on the farm and experimenting with different fruits and fermented beverages. When Cat is not working on the farm she has a busy law practice in estate planning.
