Your Farmers

The Grassway Farm is a diversified certified organic (MOSA) grass-based dairy farm located between cold, clean Lake Michigan and picturesque Lake Winnebago. In addition to milking 100 dairy cows, we direct market bulk chicken, turkey, brown eggs, beef and pork. All of our animals (beef, pork, chicken and turkey) are fed certified organic feed.
The farm consists of over 200 acres of fresh green growing meadow grasses. After each milking our herd of jerseys and Holstein cows takes a leisurely stroll to a new paddock of fresh grass and spends the day grazing, ruminating and resting. The cows receive only 2-3 pounds of oats or barley, kelp, naturally mined mineral and sea salt per day to help them maintain body condition.
On our farm, everyone grazes, so the egg-laying free-range chickens are allowed to dine on juicy bugs, tender grasses and a small amount of grain. Our pastured meat birds live in moveable, open bottom pens out on the same pasture. They are protected from predators, but can still enjoy the sunshine, bugs and grass. The Jersey steers graze with the dairy cows to get the very best pasture plus a small amount of grain. Finally, our "pigerator" pork comes from pigs that are allowed to do what they truly love to do: root through and compost the winter bedded pack from the cows.
We would love to hear from you. May you be able to live close to the land.
