Connection is protection

Connection and community are the most important elements for a healthy society.  I feel that we (as modern humans) have steered way off the meaningful and a purpose filled path that we were designed for.  Together we will improve our food system, our health, and our little slice of heaven because connection is protection.

You are an eager, dedicated supporter of edible animal protein portions.  We're the family farm but we can’t do this alone. We need processors to transform our happy healthy animals into packages that fit in a home freezer.  We are very thankful for our processors.  Thank you, for your patience and acceptance that our packaging can sometimes be irregular.  It’s part of the small processor charm and a clear indication that there’s no mass production going on around here. 

This spring marks the beginning of our 8th animal raising season! We do the raising and together we do the eating, this beautiful relationship allows us to nourish our families with nutrient dense, humanely raised pasture based meats. While we have met thousands of folks at the OPFM that prefer to shop 36 Saturdays of the year, our online people/supporters shop and enjoy our meats all year long. 

I don’t believe in coincidences, you and I(we) have crossed paths for a reason bigger than the both of us.  We are on this journey to raise healthy and happy animals whose meat will be consumed by our families.  We started on this because we believed we could raise animals better while also improving the land that’s been entrusted to us. We also wanted to create a direct line from us to you.   What brought you to us? I’d love to hear more about your story.
