Chatter in the Soil

Posted: February 12, 2021

Film fans might be reminded of James Cameron’s 2009 blockbuster Avatar. On “Pandora,” where the movie takes place, all the organisms are connected. They can communicate and collectively manage resources, thanks to “some kind of electrochemical communication between the roots of trees”. This sounds like some sort of science fiction, but this is actually very…

Dancing Diversity

Posted: January 27, 2021

How do we get the most nutrient dense produce? We say we biomimic patterns in nature on our farm. One key aspect we always find apparent in nature is diversity. In nature, you will not find a field of corn or a pasture of constant herbivores. Herbivores migrate through the land and the plant life…

Why Fresh Matters

Posted: January 14, 2021

So you want to eat your vegetables because they are healthy for you and/or they taste good. Just how healthy are they though and how good could they really taste? Tomatoes from your grocery store are typically stored for up to six weeks before being sold. Lettuces can be 2 weeks old by the time…

Farm By Colors

Posted: January 11, 2021

I’ve always been a sucker for anything colorful. Art, food, clothing…you name it…if it pops I’m probably gonna be drawn to it. It’s possibly why I am a huge nature junky. I absolutely love the colors. Every season, there is this bursting display of colors sweeping through the mountains and valleys of SWPA. It’s so…

Posted: December 14, 2020

Why is eating good food so expensive? That is a mighty big question to answer and really has a few relevant responses. Most consumers who wish to purchase locally grown food seemingly have to pay a hefty price. In reality, is it all that more expensive? How big of a role do government subsidies play?…

How We Raise Our Rabbits

Posted: November 30, 2020

Rabbit meat is very healthy and extremely sustainable. Not only that, but rabbit meat can be cooked just like chicken. Nearly every recipe that uses chicken, you can substitute rabbit for a very healthy, sustainable meal. As with all food, we think it’s important to investigate the source. So how do we raise these rabbits…

Changing Foodscape

Posted: November 30, 2020

How has our society become so disconnected with our food, that we have become careless as to how it ended up on our plate? Over the years, it has been a race to grow food as fast as possible, as big as possible and as cheaply as possible. Oh, and it must survive a trip…

Free Range Chickens

Posted: November 30, 2020

Every week from April until mid to late November, we attend local farmers markets. We of course have our usual customers that are hooked on our chicken who stop by, get their favorite cuts, and go about their shopping as they patronize the other vendors. These are the ones who are already familiar with us,…

Grain Fed Livestock

Posted: November 30, 2020

“Do you feed your chickens grains?” That’s a question that gets asked a lot. Whether grains should be fed to an animal depends on what species is being fed that grain. Grass fed seems to be a buzzword that has been captured and blanketed over all species, as if all animals on the farm should…

How We Raise Our Meat Birds

Posted: November 30, 2020

BROODER First, our chicks start in a brooder where we use their own bedding to their advantage. Our chicks are not vaccinated in any way. Instead we rely on nature to work that microbial wizardry. First you have to understand, chickens, much like humans, cows, dogs, and even chipmunks, all have an immune system. This…
