OUR STORY

We are Tanner and Lakaya Tenley, the farmers behind Tenley Farms. We both grew up on commercial dairy operations. Tanners family milked 70 Holsteins and the Lyon's milked approximately 900 registered Jersey Cows. We feel very grateful to be able to raise our three young kids on the farm. Both sides of our family have a rich history in the dairy community and we are have hopes to make history of our own. We are breathing new life into an old dairy farm with our niche marketing approach. Prior to us getting married Tanner raised outdoor pigs, and his family always had beef cows so it felt natural to add those to our lineup of products! Lakaya worked at small family owned creamery right out of college and found a love for the uniqueness that a small business can bring to the marketplace. Farming is no easy endeavor and that is why we place our faith in Jesus when times are good and when times are challenging. We are thrilled you are taking the time to look into our business. We are excited to be your local farmer!   -The Tenleys
