Christopher and Suellen Simpson<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

We started this journey in 2010 on 5 acres in Lebanon, Tennessee. \u00a0Little did we know where we would be today. \u00a0We have raised 6 children and we ate mostly organic, however, like a lot of families our meats were not. \u00a0After watching “Food Inc.” we realized something had to change and our farm was born. \u00a0We already had a small backyard laying flock but we soon added meat birds.<\/span><\/p>\n

After years of being in corporate america I was ready for a drastic change and I just couldn’t get the image of Joel Salatin and the way he farmed out of my head. \u00a0That was the way farming should be, common sense, giving back to the land, humanely raised animals and profitable! \u00a0We were hooked and soon I quit my corporate job and we started searching for a larger piece of property. \u00a0We finally found 117 acres in Watertown. \u00a0Although it was a cattle farm, the land was far from fertile and lush with lots of briers, milk thistles and other nasty plants. \u00a0Within a few short years we have healed a lot of the land and working to heal the rest.<\/span><\/p>\n

We raise our animals humanely and we process all of our own animals in our state certified processing facility right on the farm! \u00a0We are totally committed to providing you with healthy food and healing the land that we have been allowed to use.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
