Every life on this farm is treated with dignity and respect. We don't eat factory farm raised meat because of their use of hormones & antibiotics and because of their inhumane treatment of animals. Raising and processing my own animals is the way I can guarantee I know where my food comes from and that the animals I eat are given loving care during their lives as well as a respectful death. This guarantee is passed on to my customers.
