BOTL Farm is a pasture-based, sustainability-focused livestock farm situated on 41 acres of transitional silvopasture in the Quiet Corner of Connecticut. We run a regenerative farm performing intensively managed rotational grazing year-round for as long as weather and grass production allow. All our animals are Animal Welfare Approved, and our sheep and goats are Certified Grassfed by A Greener World. We have designed and developed our farm so that our animals can express their natural behaviors. 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. Raising animals in this way makes our farm sustainable compared to conventional farming practices – the animals are improving the quality and fertility of the land, not to mention their meat tastes exceptional! Focusing on heritage breed animals is a natural choice for our farm and we choose breeds that can thrive in the New England climate of hot summers and cold winters. Our Kiko goats and Icelandic sheep (lamb) are only fed grass. Typically harvested in the fall, frozen and vacuum sealed cuts of goat and lamb are available until they run out. Our pigs (pork) are Mangalitsa/Berkshire/Large Black crosses. They are fed soy-free, corn-free, non-GMO, and organic feed. Frozen and vacuum sealed cuts of pork and meat boxes are available year-round. Our laying flock of chickens are a mix of heritage laying hens. They are fed soy-free, corn-free, non-GMO, and organic feed. They are rotationally grazed behind our sheep, goats, and pigs. 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.

Chestnut Farms is a family-owned and operated 106 acre livestock farm in the heart of MA. We are committed to connecting our community with local agriculture using traditional and humane farming practices. We are not certified organic because we choose to support local farmers over importing certified organic hay from Canada. Our animals are rotationally grazed through our all natural pastures maintained with the help of a professional agronomist who advises us on our pasture grass mix and planting schedule rather than chemical sprays and synthetic fertilizers. We are committed to environmentally sustainable farming practices. We primarily sell our meat in monthly "shares" and offer a monthly on-farm pickup and bi-annual open barns to visit our animals. We raise all natural, heritage breed, hormone and antibiotic free meats. This includes grass-fed Hereford-Devon beef grown exclusively on pasture and hay to ensure a rich, wonderful flavor and high levels of Omega-3. Our York, Hampshire and Duroc pigs are pastured and petted while being fed only a natural grain diet - never any garbage. We use mobile pens and pasture to ensure our pigs always have fresh, outdoor space to grow, play and live in. Our Icelandic purebred and cross-bred lambs are born in the spring pasture where they are allowed to nurse and frolic with their mothers. They are harvested in September through April each year. We also raise our own pastured poultry including turkeys and chickens in moveable pens. This ensures healthy grazing while significantly reducing the bug population on our farm! Chestnut Farms offers shares in our meat CSA. Each month members receive a mix of "daily" (ground beef, stew meat, bacon, whole chicken, sausage) cuts and "prime" cuts (steaks, chops, boneless chicken breasts). For more information please feel free to visit our website. Chestnut Farms, Kim Denney, PO Box 545, 404
Turkey Street, Hardwick MA 01037. (413) 477-6656. Greetings from the Chicoine Family Farm. Henry Chicoine established the farm in 1933. It was a cream and heifer operation. He also sold ice from the ice pond for refrigeration. Henry never used any herbicides or pesticides on the land and that remains true today. We have built on that great foundation and now produce high quality 100% grass raised beef. We offer a variety of steaks individually wrapped, 2 to 4-pound roasts, and 1–pound packages of ground beef. Everything is frozen and kryo-vacced. You may call us and purchase at the farm, or visit us at the farmers markets. Ask about our delivery services. Chicoine Family Farm, Bill Chicoine, Elodie Chicoine, 116

Non-members are welcome to shop at our farm during CSA hours. Please visit our website for current hours. * We do give our sheep and goats a HANDFUL of organic, soy-free grain just to coax them out to pasture each day. If we didn’t do this, they would run all over town. Our farm is right in the middle of town, and sometimes the animals get loose and stop traffic. This is purely a functional strategy that is necessary because of our location and the difficulties in hearing our animals. Clark Organic Farm, Andrew Rodgers, 201 Bedford Road, Carlisle, MA 01741.

Here in New England, I have raised grass-fed beef for over ten years, with a focus on sustainability and holistic principles. I now raise pastured pork, pastured chicken, pastured eggs, and 100% grass-fed beef on 65 acres on the banks of the Merrimack River, about 10 miles from the Massachusetts state line. My pastures are certified organic by the State of New Hampshire. My cattle graze on pasture throughout the growing season, and I feed them certified organic hay in the winter. They are never fed corn or other grain, even for “handling” purposes. I sell beef in bulk and by the cut. I harvest my cattle when they have reached their full potential of quality, which means the largest quantities are available in the fall. Therefore, I recommend pre-ordering for fall delivery. All my beef is USDA-inspected and flash-frozen. My pigs live and forage outdoors, and I supplement their diet with organic formulated pig grain. My pork is harvested in the fall, and is available in bulk and by the cut as long as supplies last. All my pork is USDA-inspected and flash-frozen. I raise my meat chickens outdoors on pasture in a day-range system, which allows them to forage for bugs and living plants. I supplement their diet with organic formulated chicken grain. I process the birds on-farm (exempt from USDA inspection) June through October. I sell fresh or frozen whole chickens (i.e. plucked and cleaned but not cut up into parts). My laying hens, like the meat chickens, forage outdoors on pasture in the growing season, and also get organic formulated layer grain. Eggs are available year-round. Please visit my web site for current pricing, ordering information, and more details about my farming practices. Steve Normanton, 226

We do have a small, select herd, so please contact us for availability of our beef—it sells quickly! We raise Ruby Red Devon cattle (with an occasional Red Angus cross for a different flavor offering; these are always clearly noted as a cross). The two main reasons Devons were chosen was that they marble—and thus taste best to us—of all cattle raised on 100% grass, and they are of a docile nature, easy to manage, and are naturally healthy and hearty. Our small herd continues to grow and is now more than three times the size it was at original purchase. The cows are visible at most times from the road, are never confined, and always allowed free range of the area they are in that day. They are allowed to be cows.

We cater to the consumer who wishes to provide themselves and nurture their family with high-quality, untainted, locally grown, sustainably and humanely raised, nutritious, wholesome food and products.

Yes: It was succulent, buttery, and robust, with a perfectly caramelized crust.

Ryan Wagner (owner), 845 Sodom Road, Westport, MA 02790. (508) 938-9398. Wheel-View Farm in Shelburne is a family owned scenic hilltop farm in western Massachusetts raising USDA certified natural grass-fed beef and breeding stock from our primarily Scottish Highland and Galloway herd. The cattle graze contentedly on our summer pastures and are fed grass-legume hay from our fields during the winter. These heritage breed cattle do an excellent job of maintaining open space on land that is not suitable for grain or vegetable crops. We have chosen this type of farming because it is more environmentally friendly, more humane for the animals, and also healthier for the consumer. Unlike commercial feedlot cattle that are raised in confinement and fed a diet of grain, synthetic vitamins, growth hormones, and antibiotics, our grass-fed animals live very different lives. They live on pasture from birth to market. Because they live a more natural, less stressful life the animals are very healthy and calm. We determine the growth rate of our animals not by artificial hormones and grain but instead by genetics and quality of the forage, resulting in a nutritious healthier product. Wheel-View Farm, 212
