We’re excited to announce that we’ve added something NEW to the farm - slowly grown pasture raised turkeys that are corn free and soy free! Reservations for the highest quality and most nutritionally dense Thanksgiving Turkeys have opened! The online reservation process (through our website) is simple and guarantees your holiday centerpiece. Hurry though, supplies are limited and we expect to sell out in advance! All preordered turkeys will be available for pick up Thanksgiving week. Additionally, we’ve already begun harvesting turkeys for pieces: things like Thighs, Drumsticks, Breasts, Tenderloins, a Premium Ground Turkey made from breasts and thighs, plus many more items. Read on for more details.

After many years of being asked by our supporters if we’d ever begin raising turkeys, we finally made the decision last winter to implement a plan. Among the many things required were developing an organic corn free and soy free supplemental feed that meets the specialized needs of turkeys, installing additional cold storage space, and designing and constructing a very large open bottomed mobile hoop house to keep them safe in the field while also allowing them to actively graze the pasture. And graze they do! The turkeys are moved to fresh pasture as often as twice a day depending on their size and nutritional needs. With how much grass and fresh clover is consumed, you’d think the cattle had just come through. A big thanks to our farm crew for working tirelessly this year to ensure that this new endeavor is a success.

We’ve been quiet on social media for a while now, but are going to begin sharing updates on a more regular basis. The best way to follow along with the farm though, is through our weekly newsletter which you can subscribe to through our website.

🍁 Small farm, hand crafted, wood-fired maple syrup is here! We’re excited to announce a new partnership with Rugged Ridge Forest, a small scale sustainable maple syrup farm that uses traditional techniques. Things like using wood fire as the heat source for their maple syrup steam table (most modern producers use propane or heating oil heat) and using a team of horses to haul logs for firewood from their forest. In addition to being more sustainable, the wood fire lends an incredible flavor to the syrup.

From the folks at Rugged Ridge: “Why Wood-Fired Maple Syrup? Evaporating maple syrup over a wood fire is not the easiest way to concentrate sap, but we feel strongly that it’s the best; it is sustainable, carbon neutral, and the way maple syrup was historically made for centuries. It also forces us to spend more time in our woods culling diseased trees, maintaining trails, and observing the health and beauty of our sugarbush. Instead of relying on energy stored millions of years ago in fossil fuels, we cultivate and utilize the rich energy reserves of the forest to sweeten the syrup in our bottles. Additionally the high-heat caramelization and light smokiness of the wood fire imparts an incredible flavor to our maple syrup that isn't overpowering — it just tastes better!”

After tasting the 4 amazing varieties (golden, amber, robust, and dark), we all agreed that it was the best maple syrup we've ever experienced. Available now in half pints, quarts, or a 4 bottle half pint collection with all 4 varieties that is a uniquely delicious gift idea.

The first cutting of this years hay season has finished, setting different records, none of them good.

#1 This is the soonest we’ve ever finished first cutting. This is not a good thing, as the fields were so dry this Spring that we began much earlier than usual.

#2 The yields were much lower than usual, about 50-70% less than what’s typical. This means we’ll have to start securing high quality, nutrient dense hay supplies now for the upcoming winter. We certainly won’t be the only ones in need though. This will create an even lower supply and higher demand, pushing prices up.

In case you don’t notice changes in weather, the past 12 months have been very dry - we’ve received only about 60% of our usual precipitation. This year has been forecasted to be warmer and dryer than usual, which will only add to the deficit. This creates: ✅ Record low hay yields. ✅ Annual crops such as millet grass that were planted early this season haven’t even sprouted from the ground. ✅ Pasture grass regrowth has come to a screeching halt, as the plants try to conserve root energy by going dormant. This is the second consecutive grazing season that we are experiencing this. If conditions don’t improve, we’ll be forced to feed hay during the warm months which drastically increases our operating costs. This isn’t simply to avoid overgrazing our fields, it will be necessary to ensure the survival of hundreds of cattle.

It was a similar scenario last year in the Southwest with some ranchers purchasing hay at high prices and many others who sold off their entire herds. We haven’t reached that point here yet, but if these conditions persist or worsen, many farmers in our region will be struggling financially, emotionally, and otherwise.

It’s true that our method of farming is more resilient to weather fluctuations than most. Perennial pasture grasses that are managed holistically with rotationally grazed ruminants (ie. cattle) have some of the deepest root systems, able to draw up moisture from deep below the surface, but they still require 💧. For now we continue to hope for 🌧 and pray that our farming community is able to overcome these challenges.

✨⭐️In advance celebration of Father’s Day, starting tomorrow we’ll be offering a handful of limited time deals on some of our favorite items for “Dad” including these AMAZING Ribeyes which are typically never discounted. ➡️ Read on to learn about one of the reasons why our beef is so very special and how marbling like this is possible with 100% grass fed and grass finished beef.

It’s been said that good things come to those who wait. With pasture raised, 100% grass fed and finished beef, this is especially true. Across the industry, grass fed beef is often harvested by 18-20 months of age. As cattle get older and larger, they consume exponentially more feed (for us that’s pasture grass in the grazing season and grass hay in the winter). By harvesting early, most ranchers are able to see a quicker return on their investment and reduced overall costs. But this comes with a downside - for truly grass fed/grass finished beef, most cattle are definitely not “finished” by this age. While their overall body size might not change much if raised longer, the finishing that occurs when raised longer and slower is magnificent. On our farm, we typically harvest beef between 30-36 months of age. Much like a fine wine, the increased age adds Incredible flavor, imparting a wonderfully strong beef taste - not strong like wild game, but simply much more deeply flavorful than beef harvested at younger ages. In addition, the meat develops beautiful and delicious marbling that can only be accomplished through time. So while the overall cost, pasture space requirements, and time all significantly increase to produce beef in this manner, we firmly believe it creates the highest quality and most nutrient dense product available.
