Our goal is to produce the most nutritious food utilizing natural, environmentally friendly and sustainable practices. We do NOT use chemical weed killers, petroleum derived fertilizers, growth enhancing hormone supplements or routine antibiotics. Although we are not Certified Organic and do not use certified organic feeds, we follow organic standards of operation. We believe the most nutritious food is grown naturally, the way God designed it. Cows eat grass, chickens are free to scratch the ground, pigs are allowed to root and all enjoy the sunshine and fresh air by being allowed outside. We do provide a balanced, natural, grain based diet for pigs and chickens, who cannot survive and grow well on only grass. Sheep and cows have all the grass they want, and hay in the winter. We believe that providing a low stress environment, clean water, and plenty of food creates healthier animals, thus better food. In the rare case an animal becomes ill, we will do all we can to assist. We will not let the animals entrusted to our care suffer needlessly. We start with natural remedies, like herbs or homeopathics and in cases where these are not enough we will use modern medicines like antibiotics. We try to time animal births to occur during the natural season, late spring or early fall. We do not try to fight nature, but rather work with it. Our pasture raised meats are only available during the growing season, or from our farm store freezer. If you would like to learn more about our sustainable farming practices or if you have any questions, please contact us. We enjoy sharing our experiences and educating our fiends about food production.
