Hungryland Farms

Hungryland Farms raises Florida Cracker cattle, descendants of Spanish cattle brought to the Americas in the 1500s and left to go feral. As one of the oldest breeds in North America, they were shaped primarily by natural selection in an environment generally hostile to cattle. This resulted in a heat-tolerant breed that is more naturally resistant to parasites and disease. Florida Cracker cattle are listed as a threatened heritage breed by the Livestock Conservancy. They are also on the Slow Food Foundation’s Ark of Taste. Our breeding cows and bull have been accepted for entry in the Florida Cracker Cattle Breeders Association Herd Book and are fully registered.
