Broad River Pastures is a small family farm dedicated to promoting nutrient-dense food and protecting heritage breeds. We focus on education, sustainability, and humane care of animals. We do not use any chemical pesticides, fertilizers, or herbicides on the land. We are exploring various farming methods compatible with our values to enrich the soil. We participate in conservation of soil and watershed. In addition, we strive for nutrient dense produce by using minerals, soil inocculants, and other sustainable practices to support a rich soil microbiology. We practice soil testing and are developing a rich compost product using inputs from our own farm. We welcome visitors by appointment only and have a vibrant intern program for aspiring farmers.
