NO FARMER, NO FOOD!
KNOW YOUR FARMER, KNOW YOUR FOOD!
Our Mission
We’re first about joyfully raising and training our six children to be happy, faithful, and responsible young people. Second, we’re about producing clean and delicious food that is produced in an environmentally responsible and sustainable manner.
Our Commitment
As stewards of our environment and farm, we are committed to the following practices:
We don’t use any chemical or petroleum-based fertilizers. We fertilize the old fashion way, with compost, manure, and worm castings. We don’t use chemical pesticides on our veggies. Our current methods of pest control include manual removal, diatomaceous earth, flower derived solutions, and insecticidal soap. Our animals are treated lovingly and humanely. We try as much as possible to provide a habitat that closely resembles the animals natural environment.
Our Products
Authentic Country Brown Eggs - All Natural
At Heavenly Homestead, our birds are in fresh air daily. They are allowed to free-range, where they can eat grass, seeds, and grasshoppers. They’re healthy and strong and lay eggs that display that same vitality in appearance, taste, and healthiness. Studies have shown increased levels Omega 3 fatty acids in pastured eggs. (See Mother Earth News Oct. '07 article at http://www.motherearthnews.com/Real-Food/2007-10-01/Tests-Reveal-Healthi... and www.OrganicConsumers.org.)
Fresh Local Pasture-Raised Poultry - All Natural
Our meat chickens are raised outdoors and are allowed to free-range. They are protected from predators in portable electric fencing. This more-natural production model results in a healthy, low-fat bird with a tender taste that is way superior to supermarket chicken! Available seasonally.
Authentic Country Raised Pork
If you're going to eat pork, why not purchase pork from a happy pig. We don't feed our pigs antibiotics, hormones or other harmful chemicals.We don't ring their noses (which prevents them from rooting). We don't keep our pigs penned up in a small pen for their entire lives. We don't lock them up inside a stinky, metal, warehouse. We don't dock their tails. Instead, we let our pigs run around in the woods, where there is fresh ground with plenty of roots, acorns, nuts, and seeds to forage. We also feed them a locally-milled, unmedicated, hog feed. Now is the time to place your order. You can order either a half, or a whole pig.
