About the Farm

Background

Larry and Kyle Fisk, along with their family, have been dedicated to producing high-quality, nutrient-dense food since 1994. Their journey began with a deep dive into the benefits of cow's milk, inspired by Dr. Weston A. Price's research. Since 2011, they have been serving farm customers directly, expanding to an online store two years ago.

Practices

The farm employs management intensive grazing to maintain high-quality pastures and ensure land health. Antibiotics, growth hormones, herbicides, pesticides, and artificial fertilizers are never used. Beef is raised on pasture and hay, while dairy cows and goats receive minimal grain-based supplements. Chickens and pigs are fed non-GMO corn rations with soybean meal. Broilers are raised on grass from three weeks old until processing at eight weeks.

The Rest

The farm offers a variety of products listed on their website, though milk is not available for purchase online. They provide recipes, tips, and tricks for maximizing food and time budgets, sharing knowledge gained from over 25 years of feeding their own family. Visitors are encouraged to see the farm and its practices firsthand.
