MATHON ASTE FARMS

Good soil is the foundation for great hay and straw. We keep ours as natural as possible, limiting fertilizers and glycophosphates. We believe a mixture of warm and cool season grasses is important to your livestock..and ours... Mathon-Aste Farms is dedicated to developing a more natural approach to farming and animal husbandry. Located on top of the bluffs of the Mississippi River near Batchtown, Illinois, our 188-acre farm raises Texas Longhorn Cattle, Shetland Sheep, Kiko Goats and a menagerie of fowl. Guarding them all is our own breed of Livestock Guardian Dogs, a mixture of Maremma and Great Pyrenees. 76 acres of tillable land yields Cabernet Franc and Chambourcin grapes, wheat, corn and soybeans and our custom-baled hay and straw.
