Building a Farm for the Future

“Love this place! You can see lots of farm animals! The milk and cream are delicious! The eggs are delicious! They do most of their farm work with draft horses! The animals are treated with love! And they are pasture raised all year round! It is the kind of farm everyone wants you to think of when you picture one! But I find there aren't many that actually exist. Love this place ❤️”
