The benefits of pastured animals are obvious, or they should be- if you haven't read The Omnivore's Dilemma: A Natural History of Four Meals or Food Inc. you really do need to get to that soon. I can tell you why, but I'd rather not preach to you when those two sources do it much better and they will get their facts right.

Because the current industrial food system in our country is not really working to provide better food for the people, I am making it my business to work on getting a better product to those around me, locally. I figure we can all do something for those close to us, and what better than provide a better meal to people who I interact with?

I am currently selling eggs, eggs, EGGS- I've been selling them for a couple of years and they are love at first sight and taste. Our ducks and chickens free range all day and then roost in a coop at night, they lead a very good life.

I have also just started selling beef for Heart Z Ranch, which is my husband's family's farm in Crawfordsville. When I make burgers from that ground beef even the most knowledgeable burger savvy  taste buds rave over the quality and the flavor of this meat.What can I say, but that it is a little spice and years of grass.  It doesn't only taste better, it is better for you. Beef fattened on corn and grain has  health drawbacks that make the cheaper quality meat much more expensive in the long run. Grass fed and finished, it is the only way to go. I mean, with a slogan like, "Sunshine, Rain and Grass Make Really Good Burger", how could anyone go wrong??

Price List:
Heart Z Ranch Ground Beef $4 per Lb. 
Chicken Eggs $3.00 per dozen
Duck Eggs $5.00 per dozen
(Prices subject to change) 

We'll have these three items on a regular basis, every day and always. If you want a large order, I can probably fill it, but might need a little time so please be patient as this isn't a large operation. Duck eggs are the only thing that will be seasonal, so if you want them- get 'em now! They may stop laying for the winter, but we'll see.

 

Send me a message if you have any questions, or would like to set up a time for a pick up or maybe a drop off.

  1. I just found your blog by accident (fate) searching dreadlocks on google. I’m so glad to be here. I’m an organic homeschooling/unschooling mama of three and I’m in the process of getting dreads. (Been using neglect method for a couple weeks and getting the naturally separated sections backcombed on Saturday.) Your blog is beautiful and inspiring. Can’t wait to browse more of it.
