That's a big question that can't be answered in a single post. But one factor often ignored is how much land is unsuitable for modern agriculture.
New York is primarily hills and valleys with limited flat land and some mountains. Drive by any of the big mega dairies that now populate the land s...
Last year, many of you were asking for smaller quantities of our Grassfed Beef. You want to be able to stock up but just don't need a full quarter of beef. So this year we are taking the time to put together 4 different bundle options that will fit in any home freezer. Here's what we got!
Mixed Bee...
We are taking orders for bulk beef and pork.
We've put together some smaller packages that will fit in your freezer and save you money! Beef Bundle details are on the order form below.
Preorders help us plan for the season! We always grow extra, but ne...
For some time now, we've been offering local food to the Mohawk Valley community from our own WintersGrass Farm. And from time-to-time, we've offered items from other local farmers, including great tasting "GMO free" eggs from our friends at Hilltop Organics Farm, and pastured pork from Grazin' Pig...

Not as long. So we have several things in the works right now to get us caught up to modern times, ...
One question I often get from both new and repeat customers who are buying a quarter or half of beef is, "what sort of cuts do I get from my quarter?"
Well, I've been going over numbers and weighing all the different cuts when we bring beef and pork home from the butcher and I now have some more sp...
Three years ago Hannah and I moved to our current farm and started setting it up. The goal was to build up a small raw milk dairy along with other pastured grown meats. So I started setting things up, fencing in the fields, cleaning up and repairing the milk house, as well as buying a few milk cows...
One thing I've come to realize over the last several years is that as an individual farmer, its impossible to do everything. At least without going crazy and sacrificing product quality. This has led to us scaling the farm back to just raw milk, grassfed beef, and some pastured turkeys. Many of you...
Over the last few years one of the things I've come to realize is that I need to focus on just a couple things to really make sure we are always offering a quality product. Especially with a young family now I just don't have the time to do everything. So WintersGrass Farm will not be raising pastur...
We finally have all four of the test results in and all four of them were clean, no listeria. As I mentioned previously I will be posting the results online so everyone can see what we test for, and what the results are. I have to figure out what format to upload them as plus it usually takes awhile...
