Hickory Nut Gap
Hickory Nut Gap sells grass-fed beef from its North Carolina home farm and a network of farms in the Southeast and Appalachia.
- Location
- The home farm is at 57 Sugar Hollow Road, Fairview, North Carolina; Jamie and Amy Ager founded the modern business.
- Practices
- Its beef standards prohibit grain, corn silage, animal by-products and food-industry waste, while permitting forage and approved non-starch supplements during extreme weather.
- Practices
- The standards call for rotational grazing, year-round outdoor pasture except emergencies or extreme weather, and no feedlots.
- Practices
- Animals needing antibiotics may be treated but leave the beef program. The protocol also requires vaccination and worming records and prohibits artificial growth enhancers.
- About
- The company says all its beef is processed at Marksbury Farm in Lancaster, Kentucky; some wholesale cuts are prepared at the Fairview farm butchery.
- Certifications
- The G.A.P. partner directory lists Hickory Nut Gap Farm for Step 4 beef cattle; the pictured 80/20 package carries the same rating.
