Our Farm & Friends

Our Farm & Friends

By 2016, we began dreaming about taking the next step—owning a farm that could raise livestock for our restaurant. Cassie, who grew up on a hobby farm in Nova Scotia, had the knowledge and experience to give us the confidence that not only could we do it, but we could ensure our animals would have the best lives possible.

One evening while browsing Zillow, we stumbled across a small farm and instantly knew it was something special. The very next day, a customer and friend—who also happens to be a realtor—came in. We shared our discovery, joking about how amazing it would be to own it. His response was simple: “Let’s make it happen.”

Sure enough, we went to see the farm the next day, and just a few months later, our dream became a reality.

So… we bought a farm.

Today, we’re raising and breeding Berkshire hogs and Dorper sheep, with plans to expand our herd and introduce other breeds and animals to the mix. All our animals are pasture-raised and fed quality alfalfa, hay, and, when needed, organic and GMO-free grain. Our pigs also enjoy surplus food from the restaurant, and anything left over is turned into compost—helping us dramatically cut down on waste.

Farming has been both rewarding and humbling. It has given us a deeper appreciation for the food we serve and inspired us to ensure that nothing goes to waste.

By working alongside other local farmers, we’ve been able to offer a true farm-to-table experience while also strengthening our knowledge of the craft. This allows us to continuously improve both the quality of our meat and the quality of life for our animals.

And of course, we couldn’t do it without the support of our wonderful veterinarian, Dr. Dauten of Tri-State Vet Services, who is always there—day or night—to guide us and care for our livestock.
