Soil health and animal health is the utmost priority in our farming practices. Our cattle, pigs, sheep and chickens enjoy a natural grazing diet as we move them regularly between fresh pastures. To ensure the animals are getting a biodiverse and nutrient-rich diet, we manage our pastures carefully, sowing cover crops to supplement native grasses. This practice also helps to draw nutrients into the soil resulting in healthier produce in the future. 

By raising our animals the way nature intended, we decrease the carbon footprint. Sadly, this is not the case for animals that are conventionally farmed. Because our team makes every effort to ensure our products are not exposed to chemicals, pesticides, industrial fertilizers or other harmful substances our meats are healthier and tastier for you and your family! 

Come by and explore our pastured meat selection and more in the shop this week.

We're open:

• Wednesdays & Thursdays 10am - 5pm

•  Fridays 10am - 5:30pm

• Saturdays 10am - 4:30pm

(Closed Sundays because we’re staying busy on the farm!)
