Farm Project Description
We are an Organic crop farm growing mostly Hay, barley, oats, wheat, and peas. We also run a commercial cattle operation. We would consider ourselves regenerative farmers striving to have the cattle on every acre of land every year wether it is for preseeding grazing, graze downs, swath grazing or stubble grazing. one project we are working on is trying to integrate zero till technology into an organic system. We are a young family looking for crop and pasture land where we can continue to grow our operation.
