Farm History & Past Use
Prior to our purchase in 1998, the farm was a small, family dairy farm. We've managed it organically since 1998, growing vegetables for 5 seasons, and 20 seasons of grass-fed beef. Started with rotational grazing and moved toward holistic planned grazing and AMP grazing. Past three seasons grazed with Katahdin sheep.
