Pettigrew Farms

Pettigrew Farms is a Chianina cattle breeder in Columbia City, IN, serving Northeast Indiana and the Fort Wayne area.

Founded over a decade ago, it holds registrations with the American Chianina Association and follows breed-specific health testing protocols for hip and ocular conditions. Jonathan Pettigrew raises cattle on pasture with attention to natural foraging and daily herd checks to support robust growth and early socialization. Jonathan also serves as a resource speaker for local 4-H clubs, sharing insights on sustainable cattle practices.

Calves are rotated through shaded paddocks and receive routine wellness evaluations by a local veterinarian familiar with large-herd management. The farm’s approach blends traditional husbandry with insights from county extension programs, creating a steady line of well-adjusted animals. Feedback from regional fairs notes the uniform bone structure and calm temperament of their stock, characteristics the farm has maintained across litters.
