Our Offerings
Pastured Pork
We breed and raise heritage pigs on pasture to compliment the cattle in the pasture and woodland on our farm. They are given room to graze, roam, wallow in mud, and root. Our pigs are fed non-GMO feed grains as well as sustainably procured veggies and fruit. Using electric fence, the pig are utilized to renovate compacted land and sacrificial winter areas. They prepare and fertilize better than any other animal on the farm. We pride ourselves on the cuts of meat we are able to obtain, which are rich and marbled thanks to their activity and slower growth. Check out all of our pork products in our store as well as half and whole custom options.
Grassfed and Grass Finished Beef
Our Hereford and Red Angus cattle spend their entire lives grazing on our pastures. We use a holistic rotational grazing method which creates a symbiotic relationship between the cattle and the land that can be seen in both the animals and the plants. Our cattle eat an array of grasses, forages, legumes and forbs to balance their nutritional needs. Hay and haylage (fermented grasses) are fed during the winter season when grass is dormant. Calving takes place right in our pastures allowing for a natural, stress free life.
The humane living conditions, grazing lifestyle and diet offer superior health benefits to cattle, and consequently the beef you eat. The need for antibiotics is nonexistent. Hormones/stimulants are not given either as they are unnecessary to this management.
Our grassfed cattle are processed in a small locally owned USDA facility. Animal welfare and humane practices are of high importance. Meat quality and high nutrient density are the end product. Our beef cuts are available in our online store, farmer's markets we attend, and as custom share options.
Pastured Poultry: Chicken and Turkey
We sell Cornish Rock Cross chickens, raised on pasture and a non GMO ration to round out their nutritional needs. These birds are rotationally grazed free to forage and supplement their feed with grass, bugs, and veggies – everything a chicken is SUPPOSED to EAT!!! We are rewarded with a succulent bird that you can’t compare to the typical grocery store bird. Cornish Rock Cross birds (4-8 lbs) have the large breast that you get from the grocery store, moist and delicious, with a light yellow skin.
We raise a limited amount of Broad Breasted (18-30lb) turkeys for Thanksgiving that will make you wonder why you ever ate a grocery store turkey. Reservations for 2024 are now open.
Produce and Flowers
The produce portion of our farm is headed in a new direction this year. The farmer's wife along with the farm kids will be trying their green thumb at some new ideas. Plans are in the make for an assortment of vegetables and fruits, as well as summer sweet corn. The fun twist this year will be the addition of flowers for beautiful cut bouquets.
Pastured Meat CSA
We have developed a monthly subscription package of our meats that will allow your family to order a smaller portion of our products that includes pork, beef, chicken, and turkey. Ask any of our current members, they like the benefit of a variety of our quality meats, while not having to commit 2-3 freezers to receive the bulk discount or end up with their favorites buried at the bottom of the freezer. We currently offer this all year and requires a season commitment to your share. Please contact us for more information.
