Hoilman Farms

Hoilman Farms is a Hereford cattle breeder in Johnson City, TN, serving Northeast Tennessee near Knoxville. It maintains detailed lineage records and follows health testing protocols recommended by recognized cattle associations, including regular weight and conformation assessments. Its cattle graze rotationally on well-managed pastures to optimize forage and support animal well-being, with calves socialized to farm routines from an early age.

As a family-run farm, it emphasizes sustainable grazing and careful selection for temperament. A covered loafing area provides shelter during severe weather, and all cattle are introduced to handling chutes early in life. Pasture rotation supports soil health and helps reduce parasite loads without relying heavily on chemical interventions. Animals are regularly evaluated at regional livestock exhibitions, with performance data guiding selection for traits like muscling and feed efficiency. Hoilman Farms adheres to a low-stress handling approach, using quiet movements and consistent routines during sorting and vet checks.
