Hooley Farms

Hooley Farms is a cattle farm based in Fort Wayne, IN, within Allen County and the broader northeast Indiana region. The area sits where the St. Joseph and St. Marys rivers meet to form the Maumee, and the surrounding countryside has long been shaped by farming and open pasture.

Cattle are social herd animals that spend much of the day grazing, resting and chewing cud. In general, they do best with steady access to clean water, good forage or hay, sound fencing and room to move. People new to cattle often find it helpful to think ahead about pasture space, seasonal feed needs and a working relationship with a large-animal veterinarian before bringing animals home.

Northern Indiana sees cold winters and warm, humid summers, so cattle owners across the region typically plan for windbreaks, unfrozen water through the coldest months and shade during summer heat. Hooley Farms is part of the agricultural community that keeps livestock a familiar sight across Allen County.
