Our Market
Our farm market sells premium beef, pork, and chicken pasture-raised right here on our 112-acre farm in Ann Arbor along with lamb, salmon, and other locally sourced products.
Our Philosophy
We practice pasture-based farming with rotational grazing, prioritizing the well-being of our livestock. Our animals are raised humanely, sustainably and processed locally.
Our Goal
To produce delicious, nutrient-packed, humanely raised, pasture based meats. All raised and processed locally, sustainably, and responsibly by a family of farmers, for healthy families.
Animal Welfare is Priority Number One for Our Farmers
Pasture-based farming is an animal centered production model that incorporates the well being of the animals, the land, and wildlife. Grazing on pasture fulfills the natural behavioral instincts of our farm animals. They enjoy better health with an appropriate diet and live in a low-stress environment. On pasture, they are healthier and happier.
