Spring Farm Upgrades: Enhancing Life for Our Flock

March 1, 2024

Greetings from the Farm!

As we navigate through the twists and turns of rollercoaster weather, we're thrilled to share some exciting updates from the heart of our farm. With spring in full swing, we're diving headfirst into a series of farm improvement projects, each one aimed at enhancing the lives of our flock.

The Heart of the Farm: Our Chicken Brooder

First up on our list of upgrades is our chicken brooder barn. This humble structure plays a vital role in welcoming our day-old chicks to the farm, providing them with a safe and consistent environment to thrive. With fluctuating weather patterns posing a challenge for our young poultry, it's more important than ever to ensure they have a cozy space to call home during their formative weeks.

Investing in the Future

While farm improvements may come with their own set of challenges, we believe they're essential for the well-being of our animals and the sustainability of our operation. Despite the financial strain that often accompanies such projects, we knew it was time to take the leap and give our brooder barn the facelift it deserves.

Looking Ahead: Mobile Hoop Houses

But we're not stopping there! Our vision for a brighter future includes mobile hoop houses for our pastures, offering our birds more freedom and flexibility to roam and forage. With each step forward, we're making chores a little easier and creating a win-win situation for both our feathered friends and our dedicated team.

Join Us on the Journey

We're excited to share our progress with you every step of the way! Keep an eye out for videos, pictures, and updates as we embark on these transformative projects this spring. Your interest and support mean the world to us, and we're incredibly grateful for the opportunity to connect with you and share the story behind the food that nourishes us all.

Thank you for being a part of our farm family!

Spring Turkey Update?

Once a year, we process our pasture-raised turkeys into a limited batch of ground turkey. The birds are raised outdoors with room to forage, which leads to better nutrition and flavor. This is a seasonal product, available only while it lasts, and it’s packaged and frozen to hold quality long term. If you’re looking to stock up on a reliable, high-quality staple, now is the time.

Real Fast Food

A viral video from the McDonald’s CEO sparked a bigger question about the way we think about food. In this post, Renee, both a farmer and a parent, reflects on the pull of convenience, the nostalgia of fast food, and the real cost behind those quick meals. It’s an honest look at how small shifts in our choices, cooking at home with real ingredients or supporting restaurants that source from local farms, can strengthen our families, our communities, and the food system we rely on.
