About the Farm
Background
In 1933, Henry Chicoine operated a dairy farm, which later transitioned to producing grass-fed beef starting in the 1970s. The farm has been family-run for generations, with the current focus on beef and poultry.
Practices
The farm raises beef cattle on untreated pastures, free from antibiotics, hormones, and steroids. The cattle graze freely during the warmer months and are fed sun-dried hay produced on the farm during winter. The land is maintained with protein-rich legumes and naturally growing grasses. Additionally, small flocks of meat chickens are raised on pasture.
The Rest
The farm store is open on Sundays from 12:00 to 4:00 or by appointment. The farm is a member of The American Grass Fed Association.
