Pasture raising our animals is an extremely rewarding process for us. Its a way to connect our animals with the earth in a healthy and stress free environment. When we are able to almost eliminate grains and introduce high quality grasses and nutrient rich soils, it produces an amazing tasting meat.
​
When animals are able to roam free, it generates more oxygen in their bloodstream and creates whats called myoglobin. The myoglobin is a mixture of water and proteins, which move oxygen to muscle cells. Myoglobin has a very dark pigment, and that explains why our meats have a rich color. You will find our pork is a darker red, similar to beef. You will also taste the difference in our chicken. It is a tender and more flavorable meat like no other.
We use only a fraction of the grains that commercial animals are raised on, and it shows. It yields a leaner, healthier meat, higher in omega 3, vitamin A and E and higher in beta carotene. Your health and our animals remains a daily focus and a constant reminder of why we started our farm.
