Sharp Iron Farm

When properly managed, raising animals on pasture instead of factory farms is a net benefit to the environment. To begin with, a diet of grazed grass requires much less fossil fuel than a feedlot diet of dried corn and soy. On pasture, grazing animals do their own fertilizing and harvesting. The ground is covered with greens all year round, so it does an excellent job of harvesting solar energy and holding on to top soil and moisture. Grazed pasture removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere more effectively than any land use, including forestland and ungrazed prairie, helping to slow global warming.

Our poultry is raised in true free-range environment, where they get plenty of sunshine, fresh air, and room to exercise. Studies show that free-range poultry produces healthier, meatier birds with more muscle and less fat. Free-range eat organically grown grains that are naturally high in protein and nutrients.Our feed grains are resistant to disease and grown with organic farming methods, like crop rotation, that prevent disease.The soils are enriched only with organic fertilizers and humus. Pure, mineral-rich water clean enough for our farm family to drink ourselves. Chlorine and fluoride aren't needed. Sharp Iron Poultry is allowed to grow to full potential for the highest quality flavor and meat firmness. That is nature's timing!

One of the most significant health benefits associated eating organic food rests in the fact that these products are free from any potentially harmful chemicals. Organically grown food items are pure and completely wholesome.
We offer a CSA ( community supported agriculture ) for up to 15 families supplying a wide array of organically grown vegetables from early spring greens until late October squash and pumpkins. We will be playing with some different ideas for our greenhouse to get even earlier production, perhaps even an early winter supply of freshness !
