Farm Products
Our family offers a limited selection of holistically raised meat and dairy products to our local community. Everything we raise is rooted in stewardship—focused on animal welfare, nutrient density, and old-fashioned, from-the-land goodness.
Because quantities are limited and seasonal, we invite you to reach out directly for current availability and pickup options.
📩 Contact us to learn what’s fresh, what’s coming soon, and how to reserve your share.
Homegrown Pork
Twice a year, we raise a small number of hogs for our community—rotating them through wooded areas using hot wire fencing. This forested environment allows them to root, forage, and live as pigs were meant to, contributing to healthier animals and better-tasting pork.
Our hogs are Berkshire crosses, known for their rich marbling and generous fat yield—perfect for rendering lard or crafting truly flavorful cuts. In addition to foraging, they’re supplemented with clean, non-GMO feed from Sunrise Farms, the same trusted source we use for our poultry.
We offer whole and half hog shares, ideal for families wanting to stock their freezers with nutrient-dense, ethically raised meat.
📩 Want all the details? Email us and we’ll send over an easy-to-read infographic with pricing, cuts, and pickup information.
Herdshare
Have you ever had fresh milk—where the cream rises thick and yellow, and every sip reminds you what real food tastes like?
We’re grateful for the opportunity to share our excess milk through a herdshare program. Our cows are a Brown Swiss and Jersey cross, and they’re A2A2, meaning their milk contains only the A2 beta-casein protein—often preferred by those with dairy sensitivities. The result? Rich, creamy milk that’s perfect for drinking, butter-making, yogurt, and more.
Shares are limited to ensure quality and sustainability for our family and animals. If we're currently full, you're welcome to join our waiting list and we’ll notify you as soon as a spot opens.
$70/month per share
$25 one-time buy-in

This means healthier chickens and better eggs for your family.
