Rainier Valley Wagyu

Rainier Valley Wagyu, Wagyu cattle in Olympia, WA, is located in the Puget Sound region near Seattle. The operation follows recommended health testing protocols for key genetic traits and adheres to balanced nutrition guidelines common in quality cattle operations. Health screening for common genetic issues and regular veterinary visits are part of its herd care routine.

The herd grazes on rotational pastures that promote forage diversity and soil health, and it enjoys consistent access to barns offering shelter through the wet winters. Joe Hanna prioritizes low-stress handling and socialization, introducing calves to human interaction from an early age to foster calm temperaments and strong maternal bonds. Calves are weaned gradually with attention to individual development, ensuring steady growth and minimizing stress during the process.

Marbling quality and balanced flavor reflect the careful selection of bloodlines and patient rearing methods at the family-run farm.
