About Our Family Farm
The Dolan Farm in Clio is more than a Family Farm - it's a demonstration of what represents the real American family and the heritage that made America strong.
Our family has worked this farm with dedication and pride for three generations and now working with a strong fourth. We raise cows, chickens, and beagle dogs on our 50-acre farm in rural America.
This isn't about profit - it's about preserving traditional values: hard work, responsibility, care for animals, and respect for the land and community. Each day we rise with the sun to tend to our animals and maintain our property.
We believe that farming connects us to our roots, teaches valuable life lessons, and represents the foundation upon which this great nation was built.
Our Animals
Cows
We raise 15 strong cows on our farm. These gentle giants provide fresh beef for our family and local community.
Our cows are pasture-raised with access to fresh grass during warmer months, and cared for and feed in comfortable safe surroundings during the less warmer months.
Chickens
Our chicken flock of 50 birds provides fresh eggs daily. We raise both laying hens and meat birds.
The laying chickens roam freely in our large pasture during the day, returning to their coop at dusk for protection.
Beagle Dogs
We raise 5 purebred beagle dogs on our farm. These friendly hunting dogs help with pest control and provide companionship.
Our beagles are well-trained, healthy, and participate in local hunting events. They represent the American tradition of hunting dogs.
