“We grow/raise Berkshire pigs, Nubian dairy goats, Freedom Ranger meat chickens, and Katahdin hair sheep.”

Chris and Connie met in 2013 bringing different farming backgrounds to the relationship.  In 2017 they began selling their pasture-raised meats at local farmers markets. In 2019 they were able to sell their meat all year long via their new website, and have now started to partner with restaurants in the St. Louis and Kansas City areas.

Our meat is sold at Blackwater Country Store in Blackwater and Nature’s Source in Eldon. The Lake Career Center in Camdenton uses our meat in their culinary arts program.

Animal Feed

Rotation
