Healthy Stock, Happy Farms
locally grown, farm freshFrom equine pasture boarding to Cream Legbar chickens, every animal is given the highest level of care. We started as a soft place for retired horses to land - a quiet, green pasture with a low-stress environment for them. Now, we have expanded to offer breeding quality Cream Legbar chickens and Katahdin sheep, as well as a flock of Coturnix quail and a registered Jersey cow. Our goal is always to provide all animals with excellent care, while also bringing fresh, ethically-raised farm products to our community.
Our chickens are free-range, supplemented with layer feed. They are healthy and happy chickens, and our eating eggs have the added fun of being a rainbow dozen! Because of our diverse flock, we have blue, green, tan, and dark brown eggs in almost every dozen (depending on the hens’ discretion).
If purchasing eggs, please be aware that we offer a $1/dozen discount if you are paying in cash at time of pick up. If you are paying online, the price of $5/dozen still stands, due to the extra fees associated with online payments.
At this time, we do not offer discounts for trading in empty egg cartons, but we are open to trades/bartering for other products!

Our Katahdin sheep are almost exclusively pasture raised. The main exception to this is the alfalfa that pregnant ewes and new moms are given, to support milk production for their lambs. Otherwise, we do occasionally offer cracked corn to our flock, but only as a treat, and most of the time, they only eat a handful before wandering off to find their preferred food - fresh green grass!
We have a commercial flock of purebred Katahdins currently. Our ewes are excellent mothers, who routinely have triplets without being flushed prior to breeding, and they keep all of their lambs fat and happy with milk, until they are old enough to be weaned. We are working to add a registered Katahdin ram to our flock for next year, so keep tuned for updates on that!
We only have a small flock, so we have very limited availability on sheep for sale throughout the year.
If you are looking for breeding stock, please reach out with any specifications that you are wanting, and we will get back to you as soon as we can.
If you are looking for lamb for the freezer, send us an email and we will discuss options with you! Again, stock is limited, so get in touch now and we can prioritize you on our list of upcoming lambs.

Our Easter Egger Hatching Eggs come from a variety of brown-egg laying hens - yes, these eggs are brown, but the babies inside will lay blue or green eggs, depending on the how dark brown their egg is! Because all of our hens are with purebred Cream Legbar roosters, our hatching eggs all have color egg laying genetics. This means that the white and lighter brown eggs will hatch into babies that will lay blue eggs, and the darker brown eggs will hatch into babies that will have the genetics to lay medium to dark green eggs!
We often use brown egg layer hens to produce our Easter Eggers, because that helps give the Easter Egger babies a better laying rate once they mature, compared to the Cream Legbars that don’t lay quite as heavily as some of the heritage or commercial breeds. While our flock varies year to year, our brown egg layers normally include the following
-Barred Rocks
-California Greys and White
-Golden Comets
-Buff Orpingtons
-Bielefelders
-Black and Red Sex Links
-Easter Eggers (green egg layers bred and born on the farm)
Price and Quantity are per dozen (Qty 1 will be one dozen eggs and show as $20)
We’ve got a variety of day-old chicks available seasonally. We offer both Easter Eggers (Cream Legbar roosters over a variety of white and brown egg layers- these chicks will have colorful egg laying genetics, helping you get that rainbow dozen you’ve been looking for!) and purebred Cream Legbar chicks. Easter Eggers are available as Straight Run only, where the Cream Legbars are available as sexed pullets. Availability will be updated routinely - currently not hatching until next year
