Star Haven Farms

Owned and operated by Ray and Karen Hadaway, the farm has been in their family since the 1930s. Located 35 miles east of Bryan College Station, TX, near Iola, the farm has a legacy of over 75 years. Known for producing naturally raised grassfed beef, fullblood and percentage Boer goats, and a limited amount of pastured hen eggs, the farm has built a reputation for quality and sustainability.

The cattle are rotationally grazed on 40 acres of pastureland, raised on mother's milk, grasses, alfalfa, and clover, without grain, hormones, antibiotics, or other chemicals. Hens roam the pastures, dining on green grass, bugs, frogs, and lizards, supplemented with natural hen scratch. No chemicals, herbicides, or commercial fertilizers are used on the pastures. The beef is processed at Readfield's Meat Market in Bryan, a locally owned and operated Texas State inspected meat cutter.

The farm offers beef by the side, split quarter, and in small and large variety packs, with shipping available within Texas. Monthly deliveries are made to Katy and Brenham. A limited number of Boer show wethers for FFA and 4H projects, as well as quality Fullblood and Percentage Boer breeding stock, are available throughout the year. The farm is proud to be a certified Texas Beef Quality Assurance Producer.
