Our Story

Hay Day Family Farms is a family-owned and operated beef cattle farm located in Westminster, Maryland. In 2019, Chrissy and Craig Mott, along with their six children, embarked on this journey to transform a former crop farm into a sustainable and ethical, family-scale beef operation. Driven by a desire to provide healthy food for their family and teach their children about business and the importance of a strong work ethic, the Motts have dedicated themselves to raising high-quality, grass-fed / gain-finished and grass-fed / grass-finished beef using sustainable practices. The Motts prioritize the well-being of their animals and the quality of their product, implementing environmentally responsible farming methods such as converting crop fields into lush pastures and partnering with a local USDA-certified butcher. At Hay Day Family Farms, we are passionate about providing our community with delicious, healthy beef while fostering a deep appreciation for the land and the hard work that goes into producing it.
