Greetings from the Farm!

Exciting news from our neck of the woods: we're gearing up to welcome our newest arrivals – a fresh batch of day-old chicks! But before they arrive, we've been hard at work updating their new home – our upgraded chicken brooder.

Why the Brooder's Makeover Matters

What is a chicken brooder? These safe spaces are where our young chicks spend their first few weeks, getting used to farm life before spreading their wings outdoors. We've learned lessons over many years, facing challenges with predators and temperature swings.

A Team Effort

But fear not – we're not ones to shy away from a challenge! With input from our dedicated team, we've brainstormed solutions and invested in automatic feeding and watering systems. These upgrades not only make life easier for our farmers but also help welcome healthy chicks to the farm.

Putting Care First

Just like parenting, consistency is key when it comes to chicken care. By streamlining our daily routines, we're striving to provide the best start for our feathered friends. 

What's on the Horizon?

The chicks journey doesn't end in the brooder. As stewards of the land, we'll be introducing these chicks to the pastures soon. So stay tuned for more updates from the farm – there's always something new on the horizon!

After 6 Generations, We've Never Seen This Before

After six generations on this farm, surprises are harder to come by. But this spring, a routine trip through one of our hay fields revealed something none of us expected. It was a humbling reminder that while we farm this land, we also share it with a much larger ecosystem.

A Meal Fit for a Queen...

For her birthday this year, Renee chose a grass-fed steak and a simple meal overlooking the farm. What followed was a reminder of why we care so deeply about the food we raise and the people we share it with.
