Pastured Chickens

The chicks arrive on farm as day old birds and kept in a brooder for three weeks until they develop enough feathers that they can handle the fluctuating temperatures of pasture life. At three weeks old, they are introduced to pasture . These chickens are moved every day to a new area to give the chickens fresh grass and bugs to eat as well as to allow the previous days grass to regenerate.  The chickens on our farm receive a feed ration that is made here on our farm out of all Non-GMO ingredients. Our chickens are processed at a USDA inspected facility which  allows them to be sold anywhere in the United States.

Pastured Turkeys

The poults arrive on farm as day old birds and kept in a brooder for eight weeks until they develop enough feathers that they can handle the fluctuating temperatures of pasture life. At eights weeks old, they are introduced to pasture . The turkeys are moved three days a week directly behind the lambs. This gives the turkey grass and bugs to eat as well as to allow the previous days grass to regenerate.  The turkeys receive a feed ration that is made here on our farm out of all Non-GMO ingredients. Our turkeys are processed at a USDA inspected facility which  allows them to be sold anywhere in the United States.

Grass Fed Beef

Matt and Lea purchased 3 heifers in 2014. Those heifers have grown the small herd they have today. The cattle herd eat only grass, is never given chemical wormers, and are not given antibiotics. The cattle herd are moved 7 days a week on pasture to maximize the health of the animals and of the grass. During winter, the herd is kept in a barn or forested area and provided hay.  The beef is processed at a USDA inspected facility that allows it to be sold anywhere in the United States.

Grass Fed Lamb

Our lambs are purchased at 4 weeks old in the spring. They are fed only grass, never given chemical wormers, and are not given antibiotics. The lambs are moved to a new paddock three times a week. The lamb is processed at a USDA inspected facility in the late summer to early fall. In 2023, we purchased five ewes and a ram to begin lambing on the farm come Spring of 2024!

Pastured Eggs

The eggs at Abundant Pastures come from a pasture raised flock. The layer hens are given a ration of non-GMO feed. The eggs are hand collected, candled, washed and graded all on the farm.

Fruits and Vegetables

The garden at Abundant Pastures consist of 45 beds surrounded by mulch. Thanks to the cow’s winter bedding and the bedding out of the brooder, the vegetables are grown with no outside fertilizer inputs. We also do not use any chemical pesticides in the garden.
