Core Values

We're not farming yet, but here's what what we stand for:

Our Core Values

• Serve our community healthy, nutrient-dense food
• Provide our animals with a natural and humane environment
• Use nature to guide our animal husbandry practices
• Seek methods that limit the use of outside inputs
• Adopt practices that utilize the full cycle of nature and minimize waste

At Little Seed Farm we will endeavor to create a farming model based on true sustainability, relying on as few inputs as possible. For us that means starting with a seed. We will start with grass and forage seeds that will evolve into rich pastures. Our cows, goats, pigs and chickens will be the beneficiaries of our pastures, happily mowing them down as they are rotationally grazed throughout the year. By-products of our farm will be incorporated in our system whenever possible. Whether it's through composting or through feeding leftover whey from cheesemaking to the pigs, we will seek to minimize waste and pollution. By allowing our animals to graze on open land in the fresh air we believe our alternative farming model can provide the community with healthier food and the knowledge that it was produced humanely and responsibly, with everyone in the food chain in mind.
