Solar grazing is one of the newest and more exciting things we do. We are grateful to our own Bridget Hogan, small ruminant manager, who helps teach other farmers how to integrate small ruminants in large solar arrays!

As a cattle farmer and meat producer, it can seem odd that some of Will Harris' closest friends are vegans and vegetarians. Thanks The Wall Street Journal for having Will up to discuss all things regenerative agriculture.

Having Brandon from Farmstead Meatsmith in Bluffton for a Backyard Butchery workshop has always been a real treat! And, we are grateful to our own Jess Shaw for rounding out the weekend with a pastured pig session for the attendees. These workshops will be back again in the fall of 2025 and details can be found on our website!

I never thought we'd have a drone on the farm, but I'm glad we do - now we get to see what the birds see when we are moving cattle.

Decades ago, we routinely wormed our livestock to keep our herds free of parasites. What we didn't understand was the harm we were doing to our dung beetle population by using these products on our livestock. Science is so quick to give us tools to fight Nature's natural order of things - we were being sold products to fight the symptoms, but not find the cure. Nature already sent the cure, we just weren't tuned in enough to recognize it.

Do it nice and easy, now don't lose control A little bit of rhythm and a lot of soul Come on, come on, do the locomotion with me You gotta swing your hips now Come on, come on, do the locomotion with me Yeah-ay I'm convinced that songs from the 1950-60's were specifically written for cattle moves.

In the Fall of 2021, Will Harris founded the Center for Agricultural Resilience (CFAR), whose mission is to educate, empower, and equip individuals and organizations on the benefits of resilient agriculture. Will has always preached that regenerative agriculture is not very scalable, but it is very replicatable. It is our hope to see a regenerative farm in every agricultural county in the United States, so more farmers can restore land and feed their communities.

We are excited to announce that our freezer and ground beef production room construction is now complete! Our business has evolved steadily over the last 15 years, and with that our processing needs have changed, too. Our new freezer allows us to stock more of the items you love. And, in our ground beef room sits our brand new packaging machine. Our old rollstock has about a million hours on it and has been rebuilt more times that we can count. It's exciting to be on the heels of a new year with all of the tools we need to make 2025 a great one!
