Raised using time-tested management practices that respect and nurture the animals as well as the land, SkyLines Farm animals have always stayed happy and healthy without the need for antibiotics, hormones, pesticides, or chemical wormers. Just like humans, animals thrive when they're given plenty of nutritious food, lots of fresh air & exercise, the chance to express their unique behaviors, and a low-stress life!
Over the first 21 years, we developed a flock of up to 100 high quality Romney breeding sheep - vigorous & productive animals who raised sturdy market & breeding stock lambs every year while also growing a fabulous wool hand spinning fleece. Our premium wool fleeces were sold every year to spinners & weavers across the country.
Along the way, we added grass-fed beef feeder steers and pastured heritage-breed feeder pigs. A few years ago, we sold the successful sheep portion of the farm business to expand and FOCUS COMPLETELY ON OUR BEEF & PIGS.
THE BEEF CATTLE are entirely grass fed and grass finished, the way they're designed to be. They're fed no grain at all, just the farm's lush green native pastures. They spend their days roaming our pastures while converting sun, water, and well-managed green grass into lean, tasty, healthful meat. They're happy and it shows!
THE HERITAGE-BREED PIGS thrive on their lush green pastures too. Because they're not ruminants like cattle, the pigs also get a small ration of locally-grown, non-GMO grains, plus daily servings of our own farm-raised organic veggies and fruit. They're truly in hog heaven!
Our carefully planned rotational grazing program ensures that all the animals are dining on "salad bar fresh" green grass every single day, all summer long. In addition to their own pastures, each group of pigs also gets a small dirt lot that they're free to root and dig up to their heart's content...because of course digging is one of the things pigs love to do!
Every fall, we harvest SkyLines beef and pigs, and we sell out every year well in advance of harvest, so place your reservation early.
