NATURAL BEEF AND CHICKEN
Cattle
give us a great gift. They convert the products of land that is unusable
for cultivating crops into highly nutritious food as well as fertility
for garden crops. In exchange for these great gifts, we constantly
rotate the cattle onto fresh green pasture, protect them from predators,
care for their health, and provide for them a lifestyle that is nearly
ideal in its bovine perfection.

Our beef cattle are never given antibiotics or hormones. They eat
a diet that is almost entirely grass, making the meat leaner and
more healthful than their grain-fed counterparts.
Beef in a variety
of steaks, roasts, and burger are available to CSA members during
the season.
In the fall, natural pork is available by the cut to CSA members.

A portable chicken coop provides shelter and fresh grass to flocks of meat chickens
as they are raised for sale to Sylvanus Farm CSA members.
As we rotate our chickens through the fruit orchard, they eat insects
and grass while they fertilize the trees. The chickens prevent
the sod from overwhelming the trees and provide us with eggs and
meat of the highest quality. The chickens receive protection from
predators, fresh food and water, and plenty of space to run and
experience the full potential of chickendom.
The chickens are not given antibiotics or growth stimulants
that are found in factory-type operations.
Eggs from our free range laying hens are available on a weekly basis
during the delivery season.
