Christmas Eve Tidings
A Letter From Your Farmer The Christmas tree lights cast a soft glow in the night sky as snowflakes float on the wind, silently falling to the ground. The mistletoe and stockings are hung, and the gifts are wrapped.
Baling Cornstalks
We finally finished harvesting our Fall crops last week. Now, our team is busy cutting, raking, and baling the cornstalks that the combine left behind in the field. These large bales will be used as bedding within shelters, bedding that keeps our pigs dry and warm during the winter.
Pasture-Raised Poultry
Birds on our farm have the ability to live life in their natural habitat. They fertilize the ground while foraging for bugs, and eating fresh grass in the pasture.
Turkey Week
Turkey week. Good ol’ turkey week. We raise, harvest, sort and invoice for these birds once a year.
Animal Welfare Approved Audit
Every year our farm is audited by A Greener World Organization for our Animal Welfare Approved and Grass-fed certification.
New Predator On The Farm
My eyes caught a dark shadow in the chicken pasture one afternoon. I stopped, stared, and waited for movement. It was two large black birds, standing on the ground next to each other on the perimeter of the flock.
Pack Dates and Labeling
We at the farm understand how confusing food labels can be to consumers. Over-time the commercial food industry has implemented processes and labeling designed more to attract and deceive consumers, instead of inform.
Winter Work
Keeping a farm running all year means getting outside in even the worst weather. But preparing and planning keep everything running smoothly. And a great beard helps! #farmersyouknow
