We are in the business to sell registered Angus and registered SimAngus cattle. We also produce high quality hay, which we sell to our horse clientele and we have freezer beef and pork available on an annual basis.

Operating as usual

All of our friendly steads, from the long ears, the ones that have to have it before it is unloaded, and the ones in their stalls with mouthfuls…they all love SHAF hay… order your’s today before supplies run out!!

There is light at the end of the tunnel for the SHAF SHOP! Started in April, it was totally closed in today with the installation of the double doors. Still a small amount of interior work, but almost ready to be put to use! Need to THANK all my friends who helped along the way, but they are too numerous to name…you know who you are….what a long, strange trip it’s been!

After breaking my hand in September, from a cow kicking it and driving it into a pipe, I thought this old fart needs to pay attention to safety. So I am adding a few pieces of green to our cattle handling facilities! Supposed to be safer for the cattle and humanoids!!

10/14/2021

Last night was quite the surprise! Two Intervene (our Simmental bull) heifer calves born last night four hours apart. Both mamas are purebred Angus cows, and both babies have white stars on their forehead!! Intervene’s great grandsire is Broker, a blaze face bull….that’s where the white comes from. I LOVE IT!!

He was the King of SHAF…our constant companion…gave us 7.7 years of enjoyment. Ace passed away yesterday…9/27/2021….RIP great pal…

It’s Fauquier Hokie Club tournament day!

09/11/2021

It’s military appreciation day at the Virginia Tech game. Even though he may be the oldest in the stadium, Harvey Pearson is on the field for Enter Sandman and the flyover!! WWII B-17 waist gunner and Class of 1950 from VPI! Go Hokies!!

09/03/2021

It’s Game Day! And with two fresh coats of grill paint the cooker is ready to go! Go Hokies!! Ready to go to the tailgate!!

08/12/2021

With the forecasted temps to be close to 100 degrees this afternoon, it’s a great day to freeze corn! To those of y’all who think Miriam is doing this on her birthday, wrong…this is Dennis and Harvey‘s project!

SHAF enjoyed being a host stop on the 16th Annual Virginia Farm Bureau Young Farmers Summer Expo, do you recognize anyone?

07/29/2021

SHAF is preparing and looking forward to being a host spot on the 16th Annual Virginia Farm Bureau Young Farmers Summer Expo this Saturday! Always nice to have company to spruce up a few things! Should I tell them it’s my Birthday week?

07/24/2021

There will come a day when Fauquier county becomes too regulated and not allow us to burn; have to get a burn permit now. But on the farm, it is a necessity. With the Emerald Ash Borer we had 50 dead ash trees. With three different fires, we torched half last night! We had fun and improved the farm!!

07/08/2021

Had a great summer break over the 4th! Thanks Jimmy for the hospitality!!

06/26/2021

This was a great day! It is amazing what you can do with great friends!!!!

06/25/2021

Second cut orchard grass is here! It’s beautiful!!

06/14/2021

Here is something we’ve needed forever...the SHAF Shop with a concrete floor! Our 2021 project!!

06/10/2021

There’s a fence project going on at SHAF...we are replacing fence I put in back in 1994. I have always used an auger and tamping bar and have set 10,000 that way! These guys are setting 10 feet brace post in a wet area (5 plus feet in the ground!) the new fangle way....love progress!!

SHAF Yogi is back! I came face-to-face with him and did my best Davy Crockett imitation....I tried to grin him to death...it did not work!! He has torn up my wet wrap haylage twice (loves the smell-like me). But now they are all stacked and behind electric fence. That’ll fix him!!!!

05/21/2021

This is absolutely the best hay making window for mid-May that I’ve ever experienced! Dry weather sunshine and a great wind, produces quality hay and we’ve produced a lot. Could not of been done without Gilbert Arbogast…that’s him kicking those square bales into the wagons!
Got several thousand in the barn...who needs some?

05/18/2021

The kittens aren’t the only new thing on the farm, Ace will now have to share his territory with Dewey, the charcoal lab.

Here is 4 generations of Pearson male blood! My niece and nephew came for a farm visit with their boys. Sitting next to Harvey is Brian, my sister Debbie’s, son. He is holding one of his twins, Callum Issac and I am holding the other...Charles Harvey! Harvey is holding Erin’s (Debbie’s daughter) son...Mark Harvey!! Wow...Harvey’s Great Grandsons...Aren’t they just as happy as a pig in mud!?!?

I came up the hill in my air conditioned cab tractor and there was Harvey picking up a few bales that the kicker over shot. 96 years young and bucking square bales! Said it before...Hope the genetics hold true!!

Hey fellow Hokies!
The class of 2021 is graduating. The Virginia Tech College of Agriculture and Life Sciences Alumni Organization is encouraging all alumni to consider donating $20.21 as an act of Ut Prosim in honor of our seniors. I made my gift in support of Virginia Tech Animal & Poultry Sciences, but you can give to what matters to YOU – your college, your department, a student organization.
There are more than 700 options! Visit http://bit.ly/CALSAlumniCelebrate2021 to make your gift today.

Hey, it is May! And the first cutting of Hay has started! Busy month ahead!!

05/04/2021

Someone pulled into the Barn lot today, and asked if I was building a doubled decker cattle handling facility...Nope, it’s the new SHAF Shop (machine shop)!!

05/01/2021

We’ve had our first ever liter of barn kittens at Soldiers’ Hill Angus Farm!!
I thought calicos were sterile but as you can see you learn something new every day—it’s only the males that are sterile.

Our bull Intervene, is giving us some interesting looks...we knew we had a chance at a red with our red cows...but the blaze faces is an added bonus in the SimAngus world. It goes back to his maternal grand sire, Mr HOC Broker, who was a blaze face bull...love genetics!! #SHAFDNA!!

02/24/2021

Don’t tell him I told you, but Harvey turns 96 today! Birthdays aren’t holidays around here, we are hauling hay this afternoon!! I have not fired him yet!!!

02/23/2021

These guys are tired, tired, tired of February...the freezing rain, sleet, snow, thawing, and mud needs to stop! I told them, “feel the strength of that sun? Hang in for another month”. They said, “We can handle it!! Just keep bringing us that high quality HAY!”

Congratulations to the class of 2021–Go Hokies!

Making marshmallows today!

Proud of my Dad, at 95 years young, doing battle with the yard burrowing groundhog....he put it on him...a 12 pounder!!

Breeding Season

It is breeding season, and we are checking for patches! 🔈🔔 sound up

On September 1 there was one...now we are half way there with 24!

Owner, operator and head peon, Dennis Pearson, is a man of many talents. He continues to amuse our family.

OH MY, we have added color to SHAF!! We purchased these heifer calves from our good friend Norman Bower. They are gentle as can be and AI sired by Hulk and Iron Hide-half blood SimmAngus bulls. We will develop them through the winter and breed them this Spring. They will be for sale at the Virginia Beef Expo as cow/calf pairs April 2020!!

I may be approaching 60, but I still schooled the star high school basketball player in a game of one on one! I still got it!!

Peaceful Spring day on SHAF!!

Here is production Agriculture at its best!! While most of us in the Mid Atlantic were sleeping in due to the ice and snow, some were getting it done even though Mother Nature was giving all her best. This is one of our embryo calves that was born this morning in the harsh elements being taken to the barn for a good start. Mother and baby are doing well thanks to the efforts of Rob Farmer and his crew who are a cooperative herd with some of our embryos. We very much appreciate their efforts!
