Next round of moving around the farm, their only constraint being the electric net fencing that keeps them safe from ground-based predators. These birds are up and foraging this morning, feasting on a diverse diet of grasses, weeds, seeds, bugs, berries, and worms. They are living their best life!

This extended heat and dry weather have not stopped this little hazelnut from producing the farm’s first hazelnut crop! Few things bring me as much joy as seeing the long-term perennial food systems that we have put in place over the past six years come to fruition.

Fall chicken is one week away. These birds are living their best lives. They are currently moving through the orchard tree lanes, filling their crops with a wide diversity of grasses, forbs, legumes, seeds, bugs, and persimmon fruit.

The Cornish X sometimes get knocked by people as lazy birds, but we have found that if you don’t restrict their movement to Salatin or Suscovich style chicken tractors and do timed feedings versus free feeding, they are up and about eating a diversity of foods. A wide diversity of foods yield a flavorful chicken with lots of what nutritionists call metabolites or plant secondary compounds.

More and wider diversity of metabolites in the chicken mean healthier food for humans. You are what your food eats. That goes for fruits, vegetables, and meats. That is why we say our proteins are Better for You, Better for the Animal, and Better for the Environment.

Sheep eating mulberry tree forage. You love to see it. Perennial tree leaves with higher protein than alfalfa. No problem in this heat and lack of rainfall. 💪

Late summer are making their way through the orchard following close behind the sheep. Plenty of shade between these tree lanes to keep the birds comfortable. Just a couple more weeks til we are restocked on all things chicken!

These little birdies will spend a few days in this farm trailer in the easier to climate control garage while we wait for this abominable heat to pass. Our brooder catches a lot of direct afternoon sun, so we have to be extra careful with young birds and this weather.

Paddock move for the sheep yesterday. These St. Croix sheep are hair sheep with very high parasite resistance. And they are thrifty animals, able to put weight on with nothing but grass.

We are excited to build our flock and quickly offer 100% grassfed lamb. Another flavorful, nutrient dense protein enterprise added to BGF! 🤗
