The "Why"
Behind the Farm
Faith, family, and the American spirit run deep in our veins. Witnessing God's blessings through generations has instilled in us the values that now guide KBMartin Dream Big Farm: hard work, big dreams, resilience, respect, and a fierce independence.
As our family has blossomed over the years, we’ve longed to create a legacy that reflects these values. We found our compass in the Beefmaster breed, a testament to adaptability and excellence. Inspired by its potential, we embarked on a mission: to bring together some of the best pedigrees in the Beefmaster cattle breed and provide farmers with high-performing, profitable options, helping them thrive alongside us.
More About Our Family
With family ties split between rural Missouri and the St. Louis Italian community, we’ve developed a deep appreciation of nature and heritage. We have fond memories of shooting snakes with bow and arrows (It’s a blast – Try it sometime!) and enjoying the Columbus Day parades on The Hill in St. Louis.
These diverse roots intertwine into a profound sense of responsibility – to care for the land that sustains us. We believe in fostering an ecosystem that thrives, protecting our precious resources for generations to come. As my father's wisdom echoes, "They don't make land anymore." It's our duty to ensure future generations inherit a haven to learn about nature, embrace cherished traditions like hunting and fishing, and simply reconnect with the earth.
This dedication to legacy extends beyond the land. Proudly, we unveil our Martin family symbol, lovingly crafted on the farm's majestic barn quilt. Each element represents one of our strongest values.
- God & Faith (the cross)
- The Great Outdoors (the mountains and green parts)
- Dreams, Glory, & Splendor (the sun)
- Peace & Sincerity (white parts)
- Loyalty & Truth (blue parts)
- Italian Heritage (green, white, & red/orange parts)
- American Pride (red, white, & blue parts)
These values aren't mere patches on a quilt; they're the lifeblood of everything we do at KBMartin Dream Big Farm. And we only plan to continue passing along our beliefs, faith, and work ethic to future generations.
At KBMartin, we stand ready to connect. We want to hear your story, share our passions, and explore how we can collectively steward God's gifts and shape the future of this great nation.
Remember, as someone wise once said, "There is only one America. If it fails, there is no other America to go to."
Let’s get after it!
