Droke Farms

Droke Farms, Wagyu cattle, Reagan, TN, in East Tennessee near Knoxville. Tim Droke has worked with Wagyu lines for over a decade, maintains registry memberships with national cattle organizations and follows recommended genetic and health-testing protocols. The herd grazes on rotational pasture behind the family home, with access to open barns for shelter, and calves are raised with consistent, low-stress handling from birth to encourage calm temperaments.

One repeat buyer noted rich marbling and a mild, buttery flavor in the beef that reflects the farm’s balanced feeding approach. Droke Farms emphasizes sustainable grazing methods, cover crop rotations and supports local markets by partnering with nearby retailers and restaurants. Scheduled tours and occasional open-farm events allow a closer look at the pastures, cattle handling techniques and Wagyu husbandry practices.

Founded on principles of animal welfare and transparency, this family-run operation blends traditional farm methods with careful record keeping. Tim lives on site and takes part in daily feeding and pasture checks.
