Checkmate Farm

Checkmate Farm, run by Joe and Kathy Donovan, raises Buckeye chickens on a mountainside property in Bluemont, Virginia, in the foothills of the Blue Ridge near Leesburg. The farm is a working multi-species operation that also keeps Karakul sheep and Midget White turkeys alongside its Buckeye flock.

For anyone looking for Buckeye chickens for sale in Virginia, Checkmate Farm offers birds from a hands-on farm environment. The property has a notably traditional character, with stone walls and hillside terrain that lend themselves to the free-range conditions Buckeyes are known to thrive in. Kathy Donovan is recognized in regional fiber and farming circles for her depth of knowledge across the farm's livestock, and the operation participates in events such as the Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival.
