Wells, Jenkins & Wells

Wells, Jenkins & Wells provides livestock and poultry processing services in Forest City, North Carolina, serving farms throughout the western part of the state near Asheville. The operation handles slaughter and processing for cattle, sheep, goats, and pigs, along with poultry processing for chicken, turkey, and duck.

Working with such a wide range of species means the facility is set up to support small farms, homesteaders, and larger producers alike, whether the need is a single hog or a full flock of birds. Custom processing arrangements can accommodate both routine seasonal turnover and one-off harvests tied to breeding cycles or herd management decisions.

For producers in the Rutherford County area, having a local option that covers both red meat and poultry in one place can simplify logistics considerably. Farmers looking to avoid long drives to distant processors may find this combination of services useful for planning around calving, lambing, or hatching schedules throughout the year.
