Production Practices - Using multi-speciated mob grazing and a leader follower system we mimic natural systems to enhance the fertility and diversity of our land. Sheep and pigs mow down the grass and poultry follow scratching in the manure, eating flies, ticks, lice and other bugs that disturb humans and livestock alike. Pigs are moved throughout the woods turning over leaf duff, eating bugs, worms, roots and green foliage. This temporary disturbance exposes the soil's seed bank to light and air and transforms our otherwise lifeless understory into a environment that is alive with verdant growth. Our success is measured not only by the amount of money we make but by the holistic health of our livestock, fertility of our soils, health of our overall ecosystem and the abundance and diversity of both domestic and wild trees, plants and animals. All of our animals have been selected for their adaptability to the humid Southeast, ability to thrive with little to no inputs and perhaps most importantly - flavor.
