About the Farm
Background
Happy Hooves Organic Farm has established itself as a trusted source of high-quality, pasture-raised meats in Central New York. Known for their commitment to organic practices, they have earned certification from the Global Organic Alliance (GOA) for their beef, pork, chicken, turkey, ducks, and eggs. They pride themselves on raising animals in a way that promotes their natural behaviors and overall well-being.
Practices
The farm adheres to strict organic standards, never using hormones, antibiotics, pesticides, or chemicals. Their cattle are 100% grass-fed and grass-finished, roaming freely on pasture and never confined to feedlots. Calves stay with their mothers until naturally weaned. Poultry is either hatched on-site or arrives as day-old chicks, and they spend their lives on pasture, enjoying sunlight and foraging. Pigs are bred and born on pasture, with sows building nests for birthing and piglets staying with their mothers until weaned. The farm's philosophy centers on animal welfare and ecological harmony, ensuring that all animals live in conditions that allow them to express natural behaviors.
The Rest
Happy Hooves Organic Farm sells their meat directly to consumers, with beef and pork processed at a USDA-inspected facility and available in various cuts. Chickens and turkeys are sold whole or in parts, and eggs are available by the dozen. The farm emphasizes transparency and invites customers to check their website for current availability or to contact them directly.
