Evermore Farm is a small, family-owned and operated livestock and produce farm. We are located in Westminster, MD with easy access from Baltimore, MD; Washington, DC; Frederick, MD; and south-central Pennsylvania. Although we are not certified organic, we run our farm in a sustainable manner. We support local food systems, better stewardship of our land, and raising animals with respect. We offer seasonal shares of our produce, meats (beef, pork, lamb), poultry (chickens) and eggs.
We raise fork-tender Dexter/Belted Galloway beef cattle, wonderfully mild tasting Katahdin lambs, and flavorful heritage Berkshire hogs. We have fresh eggs from Rhode Island Reds and produce free-range broilers (chickens) March-November. We promote an intelligent husbandry that supports a more sustainable farming and food system. Our lambs and beef are grass-fed and all our animals are raised without added hormones or antibiotics.
We follow natural sustainable farming practices, including rotational grazing. Grazing on open pasture helps with the general health of the animals: they get exercise, absorb sunshine, and breathe fresh air. They seem happier that way, and we are, too.
All of our meat is USDA inspected for quality. You have several options when purchasing our meats and poultry for your freezer—at our farm store, on-line ordering, delivery available. We offer whole, half and quarter steers, whole and half hogs, and whole lambs. Multi-Season CSA meat, poultry and egg shares available. Check our website for price and availability.
John and Ginger have made lots of great friends working in agriculture and as producers. Evermore Farm is their ardent effort to “walk the talk” about the viability of diversified, sustainable small farms. However, both agree that their best “crop” is their children, Susan and Andrew. Both are now married with wonderful partners and have children of their own. Family is our greatest joy and serves as “True North” on the farmer’s compass.
Please call or email with any questions.

Hollin Farms is a three-generation
family farm in Fauquier County, Virginia, about 45 minutes
from the Washington DC/ Virginia beltway.
Our "Natural Angus Baby Beef" comes
from yearling steers and bulls that are about 800 pounds as compared
to industrial feedlot steers which weigh about 1200 pounds. Angus is
the name of the breed—a black English breed renowned for its beef
quality.
"Natural Beef" is from animals that have
received no antibiotics in their feed and have no growth implants. These
yearling beefs are slaughtered at 800–900 pounds, which is 300–400
pounds less than industrially raised cattle. Because they are younger,
the beef is generally more tender and leaner.
Price includes slaughter and vacuum/freeze packing.
Sold in quarter, side, or whole units only. Customer picks up at Gore
Custom Meats in Stephens City, Virginia.
