Our Story

A legacy rooted in faith, family, service, and the enduring spirit of rural America.

Who We Are

Nestled in the Mountains of Southwest Virginia

Andrews Farms is a family-owned and operated registered Black Angus cow-calf operation dedicated to producing high-quality cattle with exceptional genetics, sound structure, and strong maternal traits. Surrounded by the natural beauty and rolling pastures of Southwest Virginia, the farm is built on hard work, integrity, and a deep passion for agriculture.

Andrews Farms is proudly operated by the Andrews family — Mike and Tammy Andrews alongside their children, Dr. McKenna Andrews and Gage Andrews. Together, they bring a rare combination of military discipline, veterinary science, and boots-on-the-ground farming knowledge to every aspect of the operation.

Every calf raised on the farm reflects our commitment to quality, sustainability, and the future of the beef industry — while honoring the traditions of family farming passed down through generations.

Service, Sacrifice,
and the Land

What makes Andrews Farms especially unique is the family story behind it. Mike Andrews is a disabled United States Marine Corps veteran whose dedication, discipline, and perseverance continue to shape the values of the farm today.

Those same principles of service, commitment, and resilience are woven into every part of the operation — from caring for the cattle to preserving the land for future generations.

Andrews Farms is more than a cattle operation. It is a legacy rooted in faith, family, service, and the enduring spirit of rural America.

"The same values that made me a Marine are the same values that make us good stewards of this land and this herd."
— Mike Andrews
