You can take the girl out of the honkeytonk but you can’t take the honkeytonk out of the girl

Nothin like a 1st calf heifer bringin life into this world unassisted! 

Video cred to my dad @bryankelly8261 I was like holy sh*t, dad posted a video on Instagram! 

As my 👼🏻🙏Papaw, Jerome W. would say, “Good worker.”

To quote one of my favorite movies, “You can take the girl outta the Honkytonk, but you can’t take the Honkytonk outta the girl,” -Sweet Home Alabama

You know those places. 

Those places your heart is the happiest & at peace. 

For those of you who may not know I basically WAS raised in a barn. Kelly Farms has been in the family name for almost 160 years. 

My first love was agriculture & cattle, it’s all I ever knew growing up. 10 years in 4-H, 4 in the FFA, president of my chapters, top of my livestock & crop judging teams.

I was raised by the toughest & hardest working parents & we were raised right. We knew what the 10 Commandments were & the golden rule & we respected our elders. I am beyond grateful. Unfortunately the world today is very different.

Not a day goes by I am not thankful for the parents & life that taught me the value of hard work. 

That taught me to experience the circle of life, appreciation for the land & livestock, the feeling of running your hand thru the hair of your new 4-H calf & the feel of pride & the velvety purple champion banner after putting in blood, sweat, time, & tears.

That taught me knowledge + application was power➡️education was a priority but you still needed common sense & real life sh*t skills, too. 

That showed me unconditional love, how to be resilient & disciplined, & still teach me life lessons today.

My daddy taught me to let my roots run deep & mama taught me to let my heart have wings! ✨🐮🌱❤️✨

Beyond Meat vs Beef

💁🏼‍♀️Better rethink your meatless Mondays, huh?!

Just gonna leave this here & let you make your own decisions.

My love for beef started 39 yrs ago on July 2nd when I hit the ground runnin. My mom was bailing hay. 🦾😄

Used to have a bumper sticker that said, “I love beef like some people love the Lord.” 😂 Who would’ve known that couldn’t be more true today! 🥰

As for me,  #BEEFitswhatsfordinner (& just about every meal❤️🥩) Being raised on a beef cattle farm here in Indiana and having an animal science degree from Purdue, yes I may be biased…but facts are still facts. ✅ 

Depending on your preferences, you can choose whatever percent lean ground beef meats (haha see what I did there lol 😂) your caloric & health needs. 

They can range from higher fat like 72% lean all the way up to the leanest at 96-99% lean.

My favs are 80% ground chuck, 85% ground beef round & 90% ground sirloin. 

I actually prefer grain fed vs Grass fed and finished as far as taste. I don’t stress out about buying organic or not, choose whatever one you like. No judgment here. 

Homegrown beef is the best #kellyfarms certified Hereford beef, baby 😃 🍀 🥩 🐮
