Own by Eric, Nita Bunker and our 21 year old son Charles who is going to Kansas State. This is a 4th generation farm given to Eric’s Grand Parents as a wedding present from his Great Grand Daddy. Charles is studying beef to come home to take over the family farm. Eric grew up raising cattle and when he married Nita, 26 years ago, he got sick with Ulcerative Colitis. He became steroid depend and ha
d to have surgery to remove his whole colon. After that Nita found that with some foods it upset his stomach. She found that some of the preservatives in the foods where doing this. So she had to find a better way of cooking for him. So this is why we started eating what we could grow and wanted to share this with other people. All of our meats do not have any Additives or Preservatives and contain no added hormones, antibodies or any artificial ingredients. Our Black Angus beef is Dry Aged for 21 days. Our beef is 100% all Natural Beef. Our Chickens are never injected with any sea salt or chicken broth. Our cattle, pork, and chicken are raised naturally with full access to sunshine, fresh air, fresh water. We could stop there but, there is a but, and we will tell you that when we do need to feed some local grown gains and hay, that we do starve our animals, to and make sure they do not go hungry, when the grass is not growing. It would be cruel to them if we let them go hungry. And we do believe we need to be honest with our customers about this. And we believe that our animals all should be raised with all the love and care they need. Our farm’s mission statement is: As a Christian that we should respect the animal that gives its life so that we may have life. Our cattle are born and raised on our farm and we hatch out some of our own eggs. We do a fence line weaning with our year old calves (mamas on one side and babies on the other) this keeps the babies from the stress of being weaned. All cattle are on grass pastures and or rotate as need for them and the land. We do not feed them any hormones or antibiotics. Except in emergencies, we do not let any animal stuffer and or died in an in human way. Our Chickens, Ducks and Turkeys are Never ever Debeaked, never ever forced into a molted... We do our best not to feed any GMO Crops to our birds. Our Chicken will never ever be a 100% vegetarian fed. We let our bird do what they were born to do, and that is to eat bugs and worms. We always granted a meaningful outdoor access. They are allowed to spread their wings, nest and to take dusk baths, all natural behaviors. Our birds are all NPIP Certified (National Poultry Improvement Plan). This mean we have our birds tested by the USDA every 90 days for the following diseases Pullorum, Fowl typhoid, Avian Mycoplasmas, Salmonilla enteric and Avian influenzas.
