Hawksbill Peak Farms has been in operations for almost 50 years. Our farm is a partnership stemmed by friendship between two neighbors, both with the desire to grow and produce cleaner, high-quality beef for consumers in the region. Clay's farming background goes back four generations, originating in Loudon and Fairfax Counties, when his grandparents decided to relocate to the Shenandoah Valley in 1978 and began raising cattle and growing their own food. In 2014, Clay pursued his dream of farming. In addition to beef cattle, he grows commercial poultry for VPGC, LLC. Reyn is a medical doctor by training. In 2004 he purchased Hawksbill Peak Farm focusing on reviving the original history of the farm and the pastures for cattle grazing.

As consumers voiced more interest in local food, sustainability, increased home cooking and higher quality products, an unlikely pair of farmers decided to join forces. The two decided to bring a unique beef product to discerning consumers. Selling both Royal Red Akaushi Japanese Waygu and traditional American Registered Angus beef, we are excited to know our customers and bring them a high quality product at a fair price where they know where their beef is being produced, and have formed a personal relationship with the farmers who are raising their food.

At Hawksbill Peak Farm, we offer artisanal beef to those who want better, healthier food from a local farmer. We will grow and sell the highest quality beef to meet the most discerning customer's palate. We began our herd with Registered Angus genetics to develop efficient and sustainable cattle. We have since focused on marbling and docility, along with producing predictable, problem-free cattle. In 2020, Reyn and Clay joined forces and introduced the first Registered Akaushi genetics to the Shenandoah Valley.

Our cattle are carefully raised for 18-24 months on a forage-based diet of baleage (high moisture hay), corn silage and grain. Our beef is processed at a local plant and is inspected by the USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service, where it is aged for 14-21 days, drastically improving tenderness and flavor that is much superior to that in the grocery store.
