Today’s packaged food is loaded with chemicals throughout the product lifecycle.\u00a0 Insecticides sprayed on the grains fed to animals; antibiotics given to animals because they live in overcrowded pens; fillers added to meat to change the weight, color and texture; bleach and radiation used to sanitize food due to improper processing.<\/p>\n
Looking around at the way our food is handled – the recalls, the sickness, the chemicals coming in contact with our food – we decided we needed\u00a0 to make a change.\u00a0 After much research, we started our adventure in 2017 and began to take control over the food we eat.<\/p>\n

We believe in using sustainable farming practices to raise our food.\u00a0 Animals and plants working in harmony with the earth to improve the soil.\u00a0 Here is an easy example: plants need food and chickens need security, so why not over winter your mobile chicks in your garden?\u00a0 The chickens will fertilize the soil, clean up last year’s leftovers, and give the garden a good turning.\u00a0 In return, the garden will produce a bounty of fruits and vegetables that the chickens, turkeys and pigs can share in.<\/p>\n

Have you ever been to a farm where flies are everywhere or visited the pig you ordered and found it in a stationary 20’x20′ pen?\u00a0 An overabundance of feces and flies make for unhealthy living conditions for the pigs and require them to be treated with chemical dewormer and other toxins.<\/p>\n
What if, instead of confinement, we used rotational grazing?\u00a0 Imagine a conga line of mobile, electric net pens: the lead pen has the turkeys; the pen behind it the pasture raised meat chickens; behind that the pigs; and finally, the laying flock.\u00a0 This works because turkeys like to forage for bugs. The meat birds are concerned with their feed and the grass the turkeys can’t finish.\u00a0 The pigs will root and roll the soil over because they want the roots underneath.\u00a0 The laying hens are wily and quick.\u00a0 When they take over the pigs’ area the first thing they do is spread out the pig “leavings” in search of fly larva.\u00a0 A sustainable solution that makes everyone happy and no flies!<\/p>\n
