Reflecting on a great year of regenerative farming

What a year. All I can say is thank you! Thank you for allowing us to help feed your families with the best the Midwest has to offer. For allowing us to build our corner of the planet for the good of all. And for allowing us to give our animals the best life! 

In some ways it feels like we have been busier than ever. Other ways I feel we have learned how to better take a step back and relax. Either way, between you, our supporters, and us here at the farm, it has been our biggest year yet! We accomplished a lot and are taking more steps toward our farm's independence. 

As a farm, we do not have any wholesale accounts. Our main focus is selling directly to you! That means we need to be able to reach more customers than we can just through the farmers' market. Traveling to the market each week doesn't work for everybody. 

As such, the most notable farm accomplishment this year was the launch of our shipping program through the online store. This has given many of you access to nutrient-dense farm meats raised in an ethical way that supports the environment.

Being able to ship is one step on the path to our farm becoming sustainable financially. We talk a lot about sustainability in the environment. Also very important is our farm business being in a situation that it can continue to serve you and the environment. 

We have also brought in some more partners to diversify the products available through the online store. We want you to be able to have a one-stop shop for all your meat needs. 

We still have a way to go. I am still currently working a full-time job off the farm as an ER nurse. Together, I am confident we can accomplish our goals of full-time food production. With your continued help and dedication, our family can become full-time farmers. For you, for the community and for the earth.
