Your kitchen table shouldn't be your office.
Farming is about being out in the pasture, not buried under a mountain of receipts and scribbled notes. We know the chaos of tracking breeding records on the back of a feed bag and losing tax-ready expenses in the glovebox of the truck.
"I know I wrote that down somewhere."
BarnDesk puts every record — animals, tasks, receipts, equipment, inventory — on your phone and your computer. One place instead of seven.
Stop spending your evenings squinting at faded receipts. Get the day back.
Six things every family farm tracks
One app for the records your farm actually needs.
Animals, breeding, chores, inventory, equipment, and the tax and USDA paperwork that comes with all of it. Built for how real farms run.
Animal Tracking
Health notes, weights, photos, and history tied to the animal they belong to. And when you sell, hand the buyer a one-page packet — or transfer the whole record to their BarnDesk farm.
Breeding & Pedigrees
Natural cover or AI with straw inventory, due dates that set themselves, 3-generation pedigrees with registration numbers, and sire performance rankings that show who's earning his keep.
Chores
Recurring tasks for the things that repeat — plus birth-triggered care schedules for CD&T, banding, and weaning that follow YOUR farm's practices, not somebody else's.
Tax & USDA Ready
Receipts auto-sorted into Schedule F line items, and USDA disaster forms (like LFP) pre-filled from records you already keep. The paperwork nobody else does for you.
Inventory
Feed, minerals, medications, and supplies. Know what's on hand and what needs reordered before you run out.
Equipment Care
Hours, service dates, repairs, and maintenance notes for the tractor, UTV, implements, and anything else that breaks at the wrong time.
What farmers are actually saying.
Every review below is a real 5-star review on the Apple App Store. No paid endorsements, no stock quotes — just family farms using the app.
"This app is so helpful for tracking vaccinations, lineage and kidding/calving dates. This is an amazing upgrade from the Google Calendar and Excel Spreadsheets I've been using. This is the first app I've found that actually covers all aspects of my farm. Everything in one place with quick access and simple alerts."

Built in the mud, not a boardroom.
BarnDesk started on Blackey Farms, our family's 55-acre place in Castalian Springs, Tennessee. We run Kiko goats, Black Angus cattle, chickens, and bees on land that's been in Lara's family for three generations. The records for all of it lived in three notebooks, a Google Calendar nobody opened, and a stack of receipts in the truck's glovebox.
We built the first version of BarnDesk because the farm needed it — FAMACHA scoring for the goats, weight and breeding records for the cattle, a way to sort feed-store receipts onto the right Schedule F line before April crept up again. Every feature in the app started as a problem on this farm first.
"I didn't want a software suite. I wanted a tool that worked as hard as my tractor and didn't require a degree to operate."— Bryan Blackwell, co-founder
