BOTL Farm is a pasture-based, sustainability-focused livestock farm in northeast Connecticut (also known as the “Quiet Corner” of Connecticut) raising pigs, lambs, goats, and chickens.
All our animals are Animal Welfare Approved, and our sheep and goats are Certified Grassfed by A Greener World.
Situated on 41 acres of transitional silvopasture, we designed and developed our regenerative farm so that our animals can express their natural behaviors. We use intensively managed rotational grazing methods, where the animals live on pasture all year long and are never confined; they breed according to their natural cycles and birth unassisted on pasture, plus they have the room to explore and interact with their surroundings. Rotationally grazed animals improve the quality and fertility of the land, not to mention their meat tastes exceptional!
We grow heritage breed animals that thrive in our New England climate of hot summers/cold winters. These older breeds also have flavor, nutrition, and fat quality that have been lost in industrial farming.
Pork: Our pigs (pork) are Mangalitsa/Berkshire/Large Black crosses. They are fed soy-free, corn-free, non-GMO, certified-organic feed. Frozen and vacuum sealed cuts of pork and bulk boxes are available year-round.
Lamb and Goat: Our Icelandic sheep and Kiko goats are only fed grass. Typically harvested in the fall, frozen and vacuum sealed cuts of lamb and goat are available until they run out.
Chicken and Eggs: Our chicken flock consists of several breeds of brown-egg and green-egg laying hens. They are fed soy-free, corn-free, non-GMO, certified-organic feed. Multicolored eggs are available year-round and stew birds are harvested in the winter.
We sell directly to customers at our farm and assorted farmers markets year-round; see our website for details and to order online.

Devon Point Farm in North Stonington, Connecticut is committed to providing delicious, antibiotic- and hormone-free grass-fed, grass finished, pastured BEEF and all-natural heritage breed PORK.
See our website for details and pricing on all of the following:
Our grass-fed BEEF: We raise our cattle on pasture using rotational grazing and sustainable farming practices. They have access to fresh clean water, trace minerals, and round-baled hay during the winter months. Cattle are grown and finished on grass and hay only – no grain, no antibiotics and no hormones. Compared to grain-fed beef, grass-fed beef has less total fat, less saturated fat, less cholesterol, and fewer calories. It also has more vitamin E, beta-carotene, vitamin C, and a number of health-promoting fats, including omega-3 fatty acids and “conjugated linoleic acid” (CLA) than grain-fed beef. The beef is humanely slaughtered and butchered under USDA supervision, dry-aged for 10–14 days, clear plastic shrink-wrapped, labeled, and frozen. For sale at our Farm as half beef, quarter beef, sampler boxes and by the individual cut.
Our PORK: Heritage breed, all natural, with no hormones or antibiotics. They are fed a robust diet of vegetable scraps from our all-natural (chemical-free) vegetables, and supplemented with grain as needed. It is humanely slaughtered and butchered under USDA supervision and custom cut to your specifications. For sale at our farm by the individual cut, or by half or whole.
We also raise heritage “ruby red” American Milking Devon cattle for sale as breedstock.

Laurel Ridge Farm sells Laurel
Ridge Grass Fed Beef which is produced from its own
herd of Angus and Angus/Devon cows. Our beef is grown on
the pastures of our 700 acre farm in Litchfield, CT.
Our cows are fed only fresh grass or hay and kelp
(for the trace minerals a cow needs). We use no antibiotics or growth
hormones, and our cows are finished on grass or hay only. We produce
our own hay from our land to feed our cows when the pastures are resting.
Our beef is slaughtered and butchered locally under
USDA supervision, and dry-aged for a minimum of 2 weeks. Unlike what
you will likely find at the local grocery store, our meat has a grand
total of 45 ‘food miles’ on it—the distance from our
farm to the slaughter facility, then back to our farm.
Depending on the time of year, we may sell whole, half, or quarter cows, and we are happy to work with cowpoolers. We sell a variety of cuts depending upon the time
of year. We retail the beef from our farm stand, which is located in
the Windmill at 66 Wigwam Road in Litchfield. We are open Sundays from 12 to 2pm.
We also sell our beef through New
Morning Natural and Organic in Woodbury, CT. We are
at the Litchfield Farmer’s Market which is open on Saturdays from
10-1. (Please check www.litchfieldhillsfood.org for
actual hours.)

Savage Hill Cattle Co. at Matson Farm is a small operation in the geographic heart of Connecticut. We sell free-range, NON-GMO, grass-and-hay-fed beef by the side.
We raise Black Angus cattle crossbred with Wagyu cattle. Wagyu produce what is commonly known as Kobe beef. The introduction of their genetics into our operation has made an enormous impact on the flavor and tenderness of our beef, allowing us to produce an even better grass-fed product without compromising the quality you expect from a great steak!
The superior hybrid vigor traits or “heterosis” of a crossbred animal makes them more hearty, healthy and naturally productive. As a result, all our animals—with the occasional exception of a young calf and mother in very inclement weather—are kept outdoors in a low-stress environment year-round.
We value old-fashioned farming techniques and humane treatment of all our animals. We DO NOT use any synthetic fertilizers, pesticides or herbicides anywhere on our property. This allows a diverse group of soil microbes to improve nutrient cycling and deliver more trace minerals through the food chain and to you. We pledge to never use artificial growth hormones, antibiotics or other drugs in our cattle. All our beef comes from cattle born and raised on our farm in accordance with our strict practices.
We sell our beef by the whole or half cow; a typical side weighs approximately 300 pounds. Animals are processed in USDA inspected facilities on a per order basis for maximum quality. We require a 3 to 4 week lead time and a deposit for your order.
Our current price is $7.00/pound hanging weight for a side, or $6.50/pound for a whole cow. This includes custom cutting to customer specifications (if desired) and vacuum sealing. Lead time and prices are subject to change.
Call or e-mail today to place your order. We will call you when it is ready, and you can pick it up directly from the processor.
When you buy from us you get the best piece of beef and peace of mind.

Stuart Family Farm is located in picturesque Bridgewater, CT, an hour from Hartford and New Haven, and 1 1/2 hours from New York City. We raise 100% grass-fed beef, pastured pork, and pastured poultry. Our beef has been Animal Welfare Approved since 2008 and we take great pride in the excellent quality of life we provide for all our animals. Our farm is free of herbicides and pesticides and we treat any illnesses or injuries holistically.
Our beef herd is comprised of Red Angus and Red Angus crossbred cattle. We purchase all of our breeding bulls from Pharo Cattle Company in Colorado, a leading producer of grass fed bulls. We choose bulls based on their ultrasound scores for marbling and tenderness, as well as fleshing ability and moderate frame size. Customers get an incredible eating experience.
We carry a large selection of cuts at our farm stand and offer a home delivery service statewide and to Westchester County, NY. Beef is available in individual cuts, or by the side or quarter. All beef is USDA inspected, vacuum-packed, and labeled. The Stuart Family Farm Stand is located at 191 Northup Street in Bridgewater. It is open Saturdays (10–4) and Sundays from (12–4) year-round.
We sell pork by the side or quarter only, and sell whole broiler chickens as well. Our pigs and chickens are raised outside in green pastures. We raise Freedom Ranger chickens, a great alternative to a Cornish-cross broiler. They are a very rich tasting chicken that is much more suited for an outdoor environment. Our customers rave about them. Our pigs are a Berkshire/Duroc cross that also thrives on outdoor pastures. They are lean with lots of flavor. When you purchase a side or quarter of pork you receive loin chops, spare ribs, ham, tenderloin, shoulder, bacon and sausage. Our beef, pork and chicken are also available at Chamomile Natural Foods in Danbury, CT
