Nestled in the rolling hills of South Western Pennsylvania at the divide between the Cross Creek and Buffalo creek watersheds, the farm is blessed with many natural springs. Many of these springs have been developed and are directed into watering troughs for the growing cattle herd. Fresh water and abundant grass on our 242 acre farm is our (not so) secret to raising healthy grass fed beef. We use
a rotational grazing system to maximize the utilization of the pasture grasses during the growing season. We grow and harvest our own hay and haylage fed to the cattle. Approximately half of the farm is pasture while the other half is used for growing the hay needed to feed our herd and a few acres of non-GMO corn and rye. All of the grain crops are sold to Wigle Wiskey in the Strip District of Downtown Pittsburgh. The grain crop fields are necessary for our crop rotation, w**d control and for utilization of the substantial amount of manure produced by our cows during cold late winter calving season. During these times (approximately 60 days) we house our cows in our cattle barn. We grow our own oats straw bedding which keeps all our cattle warm and dry. Beef is available by pre-order. Freezer beef is sold by the whole, half and split quarter. All our beef is processed locally using a dry-aging process. Please call for current prices and to get your name on the list for this years beef. In the summer of 2014, Luke and Tara Liggett were married at the farm. After several people approached us about weddings, we decided to share the beauty of the farm with others. We are now accepting reservations for on the farm weddings and receptions.
