We're giving out FREE half ounce samples of our tallow balm at the Bloomfield Saturday Markets! Come over and say hi to Dana to get yours this weekend to try it for yourself. Our sandalwood scent is a perfect last minute Father's Day gift to show Dad you love him (and his hardworking hands.)

Does anybody else look for 4 leaf clovers when they’re fencing all day? 🍀 It keeps the mind busy when your headphones die and the cows don’t talk back… there must be thousands in every pasture alone!

Snowy the Highland wanted to share how he feels about anti-cow language…

… but don’t worry, he’ll forgive you! Come learn all about Highlands on a Farm Tour with Mark, stay at our Tiny House, or when you host your event on the farm — links on our website. And don’t forget, we’re at the Bloomfield Saturday Market all summer long so you can stock up on healthy grass-fed meats!

Nothin’ like a good salt lick to start the day 😛

Whew, grazing season has come hard and fast! It’s been great seeing everybody at the Bloomfield Market — come say hi every Saturday this summer and buy some grass-fed meat, learn more about farm tours, stays, and hosting your event at the farm.

So many things (and people) had to come together to make this project happen. Check out the Trib’s coverage of our silvopasture and riparian buffer project: https://triblive.com/local/westmoreland/collaboration-aims-to-brings-shade-soil-improvement-better-grazing-to-mt-pleasant-township-farm/

Want to see the project for yourself? Head to our website to book a Sunday Farm Tour with Mark or a stay at our Highland House!

Wow! Thanks to all our volunteers, , and , PHF now has 450 more trees than it did on Monday! We established 2 riparian buffer zones on the farm around the streams to keep livestock pollution out of the water and nutrients in the soil.

also planted 250 more directly in the pastures last week to provide shade and forage for our livestock, creating a silvopasture system as they take root.

That’s 700 trees total 🌲🌳

Thanks so much to these organizations and for the hard work of everybody that came out to plant! It’s an exciting step towards becoming better stewards of sustainable agriculture and land management.

‼️Our Highlands are out on grass already‼️

How exciting! And gorgeous. This warm spring has let us start grazing, luckily for this baby Paisley who was born on fresh pasture.

Our cows are never in a barn — even in winter! Don’t worry, they have their furry coats to keep them warm. To minimize impact on the earth, we bale graze around select pastures and let the rest of the farm grow grow grow up all the fresh grass for the next season that will sustain the herd!
