 OUR APPROACH 

Our family has been in the cattle business for close to two centuries. We have re-entered the purebred sector, and we’ve been asked a few times what was the thought behind “111 Farms”. First, the farm is located on GA Highway 111, and thus, the name, 111 Farms. However, it’s really much more than that. We have three core strategies in which we aspire to be the best at or number 1:

• #1. Deliver data-driven, leading trait packages to the beef industry, as we have been a part of in other livestock and poultry species.
• #1. Provide complementary breeds that deliver those packages, maximizing heterosis for customers with leading carcass genetics.
• #1. Partner with like-minded individuals that share our breeding and genetics approach.

Like most things that have a runway of success, we have attempted to keep it simple. We flush the best young donors to create the next generation of selection candidates. We offer those results for sale while utilizing the very best to create the next generation of donors. We are happy to provide the first offering from our breeding program. We hope you join us on October 22 on CCI.Live.

 FARM HISTORY 

The Herring Family moved to what is now the Calvary, GA area in February of 1836 migrating from Sampson County, NC along with several other families. The farm has operated since that time and has remained in the family. Always having an interest in genetics, H.W. Herring II started a registered Polled Hereford herd in the 1950's. Today, 111 Farms, located 3 miles north of Calvary, GA on Highway 111 markets Angus and Hereford breeding stock along with perennial peanut hay.
