Joe Miller

Joe Miller, wagyu cattle breeder in Middlefield, OH, in Geauga County near Cleveland.

He has more than a decade of experience raising wagyu cattle and is registered with the American Wagyu Association for consistency in bloodlines. Health testing for genetic traits and routine veterinary check-ups are part of his breeding program. Calves are born and raised in pasture-based conditions, where rotational grazing promotes healthy development and eco-friendly land management. Socialization begins within days of birth, as hands-on handling helps cattle acclimate to farm routines and supports manageable temperaments.

Miller’s small herd is selected for reliable marbling and structural soundness, qualities that local chefs value in well-marbled beef. Generations of family farming inform his approach, offering a blend of traditional care with up-to-date welfare practices. Visits by appointment allow prospective buyers to see living conditions and ask about feeding regimens in a relaxed setting.
