• Welcome

    I dislike the thought that some animal has been made miserable to feed me. If I am going to eat meat, I want it to be from an animal that has lived a pleasant, uncrowded life outdoors, on bountiful pasture, with good water nearby and trees for shade.

    — Wendell Berry, from What Are People For?

Chickens enjoy pecking around our lush pastures, and following the rotation of steers and lamb. They provide a healthy balance by helping out with the “cow pies,” which are like dessert for the chickens & dung beetles.

Feedback

  • “I have been buying from High Hope Farm for over a year now. Saw the grocery store version on sale sometime back, so grabbed a few pounds since we were getting low on our stock. We didn’t realize how spoiled we were until I made burgers out of the grocery store kind and no one would eat them. High Hope Farm’s meat is the best.”

  • “A big thanks to Johnny Wray and High Hope Farm. We just tried the first package of beef that we got from him and it was great. I love the way he raises them, much better than what you get at the store.”
