We are a 78 acre mixed power farm, using both Belgian draft horses & tractors for tilling & harvesting that focuses on crop rotation to increase the viability of our soil with minimal chemical impact. We have recently added a high tunnel to the property, to not only lengthen our growing season, but also diversify our vegetables to offer at market. Our sheep, hogs, & chickens are fed a grain ration that consists 66-95% of grain grown on our farm. That grain consists not only of corn, but also of sunflower meal that is a byproduct of pressing sunflower seeds for our homegrown cooking oils. As the first NH farm to grow and press canola & sunflowers for cooking oil, we grow non-GMO crops that, after harvested, are cold-pressed in our very own oilseed press, creating an unprocessed oil that retains all of the original qualities of the oil. Most importantly, the high content of Vitamin E as well as the high levels of Omega 3 and Omega 6 fatty acids, which are essential for a healthy diet. In 2015, we won our first Good Food Award for our sunflower oil. We also invite the public to our farm every summer, fall, and winter to participate in our sunflower festival, corn maze, and sleigh rides.
