Honoring the Past. Building the Future.

The Waymire Farms Story

This farm has been in our family for generations. Sometime in the mid-20th century, my grandfather purchased this property — a working commercial operation running dairy cattle, hogs, and chickens on the rolling ground of Madison County, Indiana. He ran it as a hog, cattle, and grain farm through most of his life. My dad grew up working this land. So did I.

The barns that stood here were built to last a century — and they nearly did. A roof failure on the old timber-frame dairy barn led to an insurance claim, only to discover the coverage had been quietly dropped years before. Without the means to repair it, the barns slowly gave way to time. The farrowing barn collapsed first. Then the hog barn. The great dairy barn — the one you can see standing tall in that old aerial photo — came down about five years ago. It's a loss that still stings.

But the land is still here. The family is still here. And we're building back.

Waymire Farms today is a homestead in the early stages of restoration. We've put up a new pole barn, we're working the ground again, and we've launched a tractor services business to start generating the revenue that will — one day — fund the rebuilding of those barns and bring a real farming operation back to this property. Every job we do for a neighbor is a step toward that goal.

If you hire us to till your garden or clear your fence line, you're not just checking something off your property list. You're part of this story too.

We appreciate that more than we can say.
