Turkeys On The Farm

Some of our best family moments on the farm are spent caring for the turkeys. We chase and gather any birds that perched and wandered overnight, and chat with them to amuse ourselves with the flock’s response to whatever noise we come up with that day. These beautiful birds are spreading natural fertilizer on the soil, contributing to a vibrant farm ecosystem, and providing nourishment for all of us in the late Fall.

Why We Choose A Different Way

Why We Choose A Different Way

For more than 25 years, our family has raised and sold meat directly to the families who cook it. What started as a simple decision to offer a different option has shaped how we farm today and how real food can quietly strengthen your year, one steady choice at a time.

CREATE & CONQUER

CREATE & CONQUER

At the start of each year, Renee chooses one word to help set the tone for the months ahead. Last year, that word was CREATE.

As this year wrapped up, choosing the next word took a little more time. With new projects ahead and a few challenges on the horizon, 2026 is already asking for a different kind of focus.
