Heritage Breeds for the Small Farm and Homestead

Our animals are humanely-raised in the open air and sunshine on open pastures and woodlands. We select only hardy, healthy, resilient breeds that are capable of naturally reproducing. They must be expert grazers and foragers.

In addition to the natural forages available on the farm, and depending on the species, our animals they are fed locally-grown hay, commercial feed, homegrown veggies and fruits, farm-fresh eggs, and raw milk.

Our sows are bred only once per year. They are given their own maternity paddocks --which include shelters and nesting materials -- where they can farrow in peace. We do not utilize farrowing crates or heat lamps. Sows are normally allowed to naturally wean their litters.

Our fine-fleeced Shetland Sheep are on pasture year round and lamb unassisted in the spring.
