Rotational grazing is a practice of moving cattle from one area to another allowing the land behind to regrow and strengthen. The cattle leave natural fertilizer behind that quickly works to strengthen the land and allow for the next season of cattle grazing. These practices are essential to ensure there will be farm land that is productive for generations to come.

We are committed to reducing our carbon footprint by employing alternate energy sources across our farms. Our farms use a variety of these sources including solar in Quechee, and a hydro-electric dam in Braintree. These are both cost effective and environmentally sustainable practices that we are proud to use each and every day.

Cattle are walking all-natural fertilizer makers. We use the waste in a variety of ways, including but not limited to fertilizing our corn fields and pastures. As well as offer the fertilizer to local farmers!

We know that the natural world flourishes with biodiversity. Our farms benefit from having diverse livestock, plants and insects. In Quechee we maintain a flock of laying chickens as well as cattle. In Braintree we have our goats and sheep as well as cattle. We maintain a cornfield surrounded by natural trees and bushes, creating a welcoming environment for bees and other pollinators. These beneficial insects help to ensure healthy pollination, contributing to a flourishing crop each season and supporting the overall farm ecosystem.
