Happy Hooves Organic Farm raises 100% grass fed, grass finished Beef, pasture raised soy-free Pork, truly free-range and soy-free Chickens, Turkeys, Ducks and Eggs. ALL of our animals are raised on pasture for optimal health for the animals.
We are Certified Organic by Global Organic Alliance (GOA) for our Beef, Pork, Chicken, Turkey, Ducks, and Eggs. We NEVER use any hormones, antibiotics, pesticides, chemicals or anything not allowed in Certified Organic production of any of our meats, and we don't feed any soy.
Our calves stay with mothers getting their milk naturally until their Mama puts a stop to that. Our cows are never confined and never see a feedlot. We take pride in knowing they are happy—as evidenced by the way they "play" in the fields. Unhappy animals, or animals that don't have their comfort needs met do not "play." Happy cows make better beef !
Poultry is hatched here or comes from a hatchery as day-old chicks. Once old enough to move outside they stay out on pasture until old enough for harvesting, spending their days in the sunshine nipping at grass and bugs. Hens, of course, stay here year round with outdoor access on all but the nastiest of winter days. In the spring, summer and fall they are out all day roaming around the property.
Our pigs are born here, bred and born by natural methods out on the pasture. They have portable "huts" for shade and wind protection. Sows will build a "nest" to give birth to their piglets in. Piglets are raised by their mothers until the sow decides it's time to wean them, usually at around 10 weeks of age. Sows continue to stay with the piglets until they are at least 4 months old and then seem happy to retire to a separate sow pasture where it's much quieter away from the piglets. Each sow has only one litter per year.
Our meat is sold directly to consumers. Beef and Pork is processed at a USDA inspected butcher and sold by cuts, quarters and sides. Chickens and Turkeys are sold whole and cut up and Eggs by the dozen.
