 At our farm the animals are constantly being rotated through different pastures, which prevents excessive wear on the ground, and encourages pasture regrowth, ensuring that our animals have food in the future. Another nice thing about rotational grazing is that the pigs have more to explore. Pigs are naturally curious and thrive when they have interesting things to explore or fun things to play with. So, rotational grazing is fun in the short term and yummy in the long term. (It also is gentle on the environment, keeps the farm from becoming super smelly, and a million other great things). |
Formerly,Bar None Ranch, of Berlin, NY, we are now Climbing Tree Farm, of New Lebanon. We raise PASTURED POULTRY, LAMB, GRASS-FED BEEF, and WOODLAND/PASTURE-RAISED, MILK-FED PORK. We keep our animals true to their instincts- letting our pigs dig, our chickens range, our sheep graze. We feed rotationally graze on pasture and silvo-pasture (in the woods). We work with a local dairy to feed our pigs Jersey milk. We are conscientious stewards of the land, and our animals.
