Wade Garrett

Wade Garrett raises Chianina cattle in Richmond, IN, located in Wayne County and eastern Indiana near Dayton. He participates in national breed associations and follows recommended genetic health screening protocols to support breeding soundness.

His animals graze over rolling pastures and enjoy daily handling to promote calm dispositions. Calves are introduced to bottle feeding when necessary and socialized early to ease transitions for new owners. Many of his cattle descend from lines selected for gentle temperaments and robust growth, and his herd thrives under attentive pasture management.

He keeps detailed records of lineage and performance data and works closely with veterinarians on routine vaccinations and parasite control. Calving barns are cleaned and bedded daily to support calf health and comfortable births. Garrett draws on three generations of farming knowledge to guide his approach to sustainable land management and animal welfare.
