Queen B Farms
Queen B Farms in Mebane, NC is known for their farm-raised beef, chicken and eggs. This 200+ acre family-run farm is owned by the husband and wife team of Eric and Nita Bunker along with their 18-year-old son, Charles. The farm has been in Eric’s family for 4 generations and will be passed to Charles, making it 5 generations. Just under 30 years ago, the farm’s production of meat changed suddenly around the time Eric and Nita were just married. Eric was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis and had his colon removed entirely. They later discovered that preservatives in foods he was eating were a major factor. Together, Nita and Eric started eating what they could grow and committed to producing meats with zero additives, preservatives and no added hormones, antibodies or artificial ingredients. On top of these commitments, they also are firm on not letting a single animal suffer or die in an inhumane way and their nearby butcher is certified humane as well. Their chickens and cattle are all raised naturally with full access to sunshine, fresh air, fresh water and grass pastures.
