Located in Central Virginia, we are raising food naturally and sustainably, the way that nature intended. We are currently raising Pastured Turkeys, Pastured Broilers, Pastured Pork, and eggs.
Our broilers are raised in Chicken Tractors, floorless shelters that protect the birds from predators and the elements, while allowing them constant access to fresh grass and bugs. The shelters are moved every day to provide a fresh patch of grass, which also provides natural fertilization to the pasture without causing an overload of nitrogen to the grass, which would cause damage to the fields.

While the chickens do get a good portion of their nutritional needs from the grass and insects, it is necessary that we supplement them with a feed ration in addition to what they get from the pasture. We proudly use a
non-GMO poultry ration from Sunrise farms that we purchase locally from Chestnut Mountain Feed Company.

The pork is raised on a combination of pasture and woods, being allowed to act like a pig. They root around roll in wallows as they were designed to do. They breed and farrow out in the wild, just as they do in nature.
