Our animals are fed on organic pastures and in winter are fed
organic hay.  The amount of nutrition they get from the land (and put
back into it) is hugely beneficial to their bodies and their entire
lifestyles.  We supplement the organic pasture with 100% organic grains.  All of the animals
are treated with the extra care that a small family farm can offer. This is the most important part of our farm. 
The animals are happy, healthy, nutritious and absolutely delicious!

 


Again, CSA means Community Supported Agriculture, or buying directly from the farmer.  It is a great way to support local, sustainable agriculture.

How much meat people eat varies a lot.   We have loosely based our

packages to be that the smaller shares will feed two adults well and the

larger shares will feed families of about five people well.  Some whole

families may only need a small share while some single adults may want a

large share so that freezing the meat is possible. The full share CSA is based

on about $35/week of food.
