Chalk Rock Lake Farms is owned and operated by Danny and Mary Schaefer along with their two sons, Matthew and Mason. Danny is the 4th generation Schaefer in his family to farm.

We are a small family farm that raises beef along with corn, soybeans, oats, alfalfa and rangeland.

Chalk Rock Lake, located in the rolling hills of Cedar County in Northeast Nebraska was built on the Antelope Creek in 1984. The farm and lake is just one mile north of Menominee, NE, a small village consisting of a church and school both built of chalk rock taken from the bluffs of the nearby Missouri River.

Our beef is corn fed for great flavor. The calves originate from our local herd of 60 cows or from the ranches of the Highwood and Bearpaw Mountains of Montana.

Ask us about our home-raised EAR CORN that we package and sell for squirrel and wildlife feed along with our decorative PINE CONES. We also sell STRAW BALES.
