At our small farm, we take pride in knowing each cow personally, creating a friendly environment where they are interacted with and milked daily.
We practice mob grazing and strictly avoid using grain, even during milking. Our commitment to natural methods ensures the highest quality milk. These gas eaters are the lawn mowers. Through mob grazing every year I am building and enriching soil as the concentration of animal pee and poop is used to enrich the group and feed the micro organisms in the soil. Pasture improvements are done annually with added mulch & grass seeds for more diverse stands of grasses and always looking for grasses with higher protein content that survive well in our subtropical climate.
Transparency is important to us, which is why we offer tours and volunteer opportunities. Our farm is open to the public, allowing you to see firsthand how we care for our cows and produce top-notch dairy products.Meet the beloved members of our herd. Each cow has a unique personality and story, and we're excited to introduce them to you. Browse through our pictures to get to know the beautiful animals that make our farm so special.

Our Chickens
Every year we will raise a new breed of chickens. Turkeys in the fall and meat birds in the winter & spring. Offering an introduction to chicken keeping 3-4 times a year and meat processing workshops 2-3 times a year. Chickens are our rakes, great bug eaters and poop patty scratchers. Their job is to eat the buggy pests on the farm and try to make the cow poop break down faster by spreading it around while looking for bugs and worms.
Our Sheep
Our experimental animal. We currently have a Dorper mix male that leans towards the Dorset side of his heritage being a wool sheep. A Katahdin mix ewe and a St.Croix mix ewe. That will hopefully get pregnant from our young ram. Sheep are a less picky lawnmower, we will call them the weed wackers; they eat grass and also some of the more stemy items. The stem or more weed-like species of grass that the cows won’t eat to better round out our pastures.
Our Pigs
Berkshire pigs, Pigs are our food waste composters and shaded area rototillers. For the shaded areas on the farm where poop would be concentrated while animals take shelter from the sun. The pigs are pastured and rotated around the farm in those shaded areas where the stir up and clear out and forage.
Cat
​
Our barn cat Charlotte has the important job of keeping mice and rats out of the garage where we keep our chicken and pig grains.​
​
All animals on the farm have purpose, milk, meat, eggs, breeding or catching rodents.
