Today we visited Mr. and Mrs. Creasy at their company farm 920 Cattle and Co. They started this business back in 2014. The first animals they raised were Brangus and Angus cattle. In 2020 they added hogs, 350 chickens and 160 lambs. Additionally, they owned 10 acres of pecans on property and more off property. They have a total of 3 farms across the state of Georgia. Mr. and Mrs. Creasy are also the proud owners of Fries Frozen Foods and harvest hogs and cattle there. Their ownership of this business started in 2017 when the previous owner needed someone to take on the business because of retirement.
With our tour of the farm we were invited to have supper with them. They grilled up burgers and sausage, all made from grass-fed animals on their land. That night we talked about regenerative agriculture, strategies in running a business, and how they have expanded their farms. Their biggest piece of advise was to get to know your customers. You need to know what kind of personality they have, how they like things done, and if they trust your product. I enjoyed just being able to have a conversation to learn more about the agriculture industry. A special thanks to 920 Cattle and Co.
