Catskill Wagyu at Hilltop Farm is Ulster County's only purebred Wagyu producer, raising about 50 cattle on 56 acres of pasture in Accord. Becky and Barton Brooks breed from the Tajima line, the same genetics behind Japanese Kobe beef, with every animal born and raised on the farm. The grass-fed cattle finish on grain to build the marbling Wagyu is known for. The farm is open year-round by appointment.

Being 3rd generation farmers, our family has been farming since 1924. Our family's first farm is a dairy farm in Pine Bush, New York. Throughout many years of dairy farming it was common practice to feed the cows our own grown grains, and concentrated grains supplied by large feed corporations. We never really knew what was in the purchased feed. In addition, it was also common practice to use pesticides and herbicides to control weeds and insects, and to enhance the growth of the crop being fed
