Regenerative Agriculture

Regenerative Agriculture is more than a farming method—it’s a commitment to restoring the land. By focusing on building healthy soil, increasing biodiversity, improving water cycles, and strengthening ecosystems, we ensure that our farm grows more resilient and productive without relying on harmful conventional practices.

To achieve this, we embrace Permaculture, Holistic Management, Integrated Farming, and Agroecology—proven methods that nurture the soil, support thriving wildlife, and promote the health of our animals. Our goal is simple: leave the land better than we found it, season after season.


Animal Welfare

On Pastured Steps Family Farm we have a passion for animal welfare which speaks to the health, care, and physiology. As Joel Salitin would say, we honor the chickeness of the chicken, pigness of the pig, and cowness of the cow. For example, chickens thrive outdoors when they are free to roam open pastures, forage for grass and insects, take dust baths, and bask in the sun.  When animals are treated in a responsible way, they are happy, healthy, and nutritious.


Clean Healthy Foods

We raise our animals the way nature intended—without the conventional industrial shortcuts. Our products are non-GMO and completely free of pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, chemical fertilizers, and other unwanted additives.

Our poultry and pork enjoy a special, on-farm milled feed made from Certified Organic ingredients—free from soy, corn, and even lectins. Our cattle thrive on local grasses and clean hay, with no grains or artificial supplements.

We believe in real food, raised right, using only premium-quality feeds that meet our high standards. That means you can trust that our animals—and your food—are free from harmful chemicals.
