Pop's Old Place Documentary

Watch to learn more about our farming practices

 This documentary about our farming practices has been nearly a year in the making.  I am beyond privileged to have the experience of working on this film with David Harp, Tom Horton, and Richard Anderson.  And I am extremely thankful for the generous financial contributions of donors, which made the filming possible.  

A little over 10 years ago, Arthur, and I decided to take our farmland out of conventional crop production, and focus on raising livestock.  Our original goal was to provide a wholesome source of protein to feed us, and our extended family.  Over the year we have expanded a bit, and we now sell our grass fed beef, lamb, pork, honey, and eggs to the public from our On Farm Market. 

We chose heritage breeds, because of their ability to thrive on pasture, good mothering traits, calm demeanors, and flavorful meat.  A simple concept in theory, but more complicated in execution.  I knew I wanted the animals to live in an environment that was healthiest for the animal, and in turn hopefully healthier for us.  I  wanted the ruminants to eat what ruminants are designed by nature to consume….grass & forages.  My thought was always “what is best for the animal?”  Fresh air, sunshine, healthy forages.  

In an attempt to grow healthy forage, building up healthy soil is paramount.  This documentary showcases our vision for farming in a way that works in harmony with nature.  I am humbled that Dave, Tom, and Richard felt our story was one worth sharing.

Farm Tour

First Sunday Farm Tours April ~ December

We invite you to visit the farm, observe our farming practices, and determine if ours is a farm you want to support.  


First Sunday farm tours are a great opportunity to see our farming practices in person, and learn more about our livestock. The tour starts at 9am. I will talk about our farming practices, and answer any questions while completing my morning farm chore routine.  We will be out, and about on the farm between 30-45 minutes. The farm tour is free of charge, and if you plan to attend, please dress appropriately for the weather. I strongly encourage appropriate footwear.  


 Please leave your dogs at home.
