OUR MISSION
Our mission is produce food that you and your families can feel good eating. We strive to raise the highest quality meat and eggs with clean and sustainable practices.
OUR FARM PRACTICES
We are a pasture-raised livestock farm. What does that mean? We practice sustainable agriculture through rotationally grazing our animals through the fields. Our livestock are moved from one paddock to another so they continuously have access to new fresh pasture to forage. In conjunction with their pasture-based diet our animals are given a NON-GMO project certified feed and we do not administer antibiotics or growth hormones. These rotational grazing methods also benefit the health of the grass and plants and allow the pastures to produce a higher quality forage. Due to cold New England weather, in the winter months our animals are raised indoors.
BENEFITS OF PASTURED MEAT & EGGS
Pastured-raised animals live outdoors under the sunshine and are able to forage and eat the bug and plants that provide nutritional value to the meat and eggs along with providing them a different taste (a more flavorful in our opinion and per many of our customers!). Pasture-raised meats are higher in omega 3 and 6 fatty acids CLA and ALA. It is also higher in Vitamin E, Vitamin B, riboflavin and thiamin. Additionally, it is high in minerals, calcium, magnesium and potassium.
