Here’s the thing about pigs: give them room to be pigs, and they’ll do work no machine can match.

Ours live out on the land, rooting and digging the way they’re built to. That snout is a natural tiller — turning over soil, clearing brush, and breaking up compacted ground that nothing else wants to touch. We move them through the property so they hit each spot just right: enough to wake up the soil and stir in nutrients, never so much that they tear it apart.

That’s where it pays off. The ground they work gets aerated and fed, ready for grass and roots to come back thicker than before. Spots that were tired and overgrown turn into open, living pasture again. The pigs aren’t just raised on the land — they’re rebuilding it, one rooted-up patch at a time.

That’s regenerative farming at work. It’s slower and it takes real planning to move them right. But the payoff is land that comes back stronger every season, animals that get to live exactly how they’re meant to, and pork raised the way it should be.

Come see them out on the dirt below. And drop your questions in the comments — I love talking about this stuff.

Here’s the thing most people don’t realize: our chickens are some of the hardest workers on this farm. They live out on grass in mobile shelters that we move to fresh ground all the time. And every time they move, they leave the last patch better than they found it — scratching, foraging, and fertilizing as they go. They’re tilling, weeding, and feeding the soil all at once, without a single drop of fuel.

That’s where the magic starts. Better soil holds more water and grows a wider mix of plants. More plants mean more blooms for the bees and butterflies. More blooms mean a healthier landscape for every grazing animal that comes through after them. One small flock of chickens kicks off a ripple effect that touches the insects, the soil, the future herds — and eventually, the food on your plate.

That’s regenerative farming in a nutshell. It’s slower. It takes more thought. But it builds something conventional methods never can: a piece of land that gets richer and more alive every single season, instead of more depleted.

Come walk the pasture with me below. And drop your questions in the comments — I love talking about this stuff.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by and supported us at the market today!

We were blown away by the support and are incredibly grateful to have sold so much of our lamb and pork. Every purchase makes a difference—not just for our family, but for our entire local community.

When you choose to buy from local farmers, you’re supporting small businesses, strengthening the local economy, and helping families like ours continue chasing our dream of producing high-quality food the right way.

Your support allows us to raise our animals with care, respect, and the best life possible. Our pigs spend their days outdoors rooting, exploring, and being pigs, while our sheep spend their days grazing fresh pasture and enjoying life on the farm. We believe that good food starts with good animal welfare, and we’re proud of the lives our animals have here.

Every package of pork or lamb represents months of hard work, stewardship, and dedication to raising animals responsibly and humanely. By choosing local, you’re helping ensure farms like ours can continue providing food that is raised with care from start to finish.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for supporting local agriculture, local businesses, and our family’s dream. We couldn’t do this without you, and we’re honored to feed our community.

Thank you! ❤️

Meet Rupert.

Rupert has been part of Queen City Farm for about three years now, and if you spend any time around our flock, you’ll understand why he’s earned a little legend status.

He’s a silverudd rooster — sometimes affectionately called a “Dr. Seuss chicken” for that wild, storybook plumage. One look at him and the nickname makes sense.

In that time, Rupert has survived six fox attacks and ten hawk strikes. Many of his hens did not. That’s not a detail we share lightly — it’s the reality of raising birds with free pasture access, the way nature intended, where the trade-off for fresh grass, sunshine, and room to roam is exposure to the things that hunt them.

Here’s what a lot of folks don’t realize about roosters: a good one isn’t just for crowing. He’s the flock’s full-time security system. He keeps watch while the hens forage, sounds the alarm when a shadow crosses the field, and will put himself between his ladies and a predator without hesitation. The scars Rupert carries are proof he’s been doing exactly that, over and over, for three years running.

So when you see him standing guard out here — a little ragged, a little scarred, still keeping one eye on the sky — know that he’s the reason a lot of his hens are still scratching around in the grass today.

Good rooster, Rupert. We’re lucky to have you.

One of the benefits of being a pig on the farm is you get plenty of vegetable scraps! Whether it be a bad tomato from the garden, or an apple from our kitchen, they love it!

The chickens get them too, but the pigs eat more varieties of things than the chickens!

Our May Flowers litter is officially 2 weeks old! 🌸🌷🪻

Everyone’s eyes are open, and their ears are starting to open too, which means they’re beginning to experience the world in a whole new way. Over the next couple of weeks, they’ll start becoming more aware of us, each other, and all the little sounds around them.

This is such a sweet stage. They’re still sleepy little potatoes, but their personalities are just starting to peek through, and we are soaking up every second. 🤍

Happy 2 weeks, little Flowers! 🌷🐾

We still have room on the waitlist for this litter!

Two pieces of chicken news from the farm this week.

First, our original batch is just about a week out from butcher. We started these fifty birds planning to raise them only for our own table — but they did so well that we decided to share the harvest. So for the first time, we’ll have farm-raised chicken available at market. If you’ve ever wanted to taste the difference between a bird raised outdoors on real feed and what’s shrink-wrapped at the store, this is your chance.

Meanwhile, our newest batch of 200 chicks is coming up fast behind them. If you’ve never raised chickens, here’s what 200 of them get up to in a short stretch: they’ve already put away close to 150–200 pounds of feed — about the weight of a grown man — and gone through roughly 50 gallons of water, enough to fill a bathtub. They’ve easily tripled in size, growing so fast you can almost watch it happen day to day.

This is the stage where a chick stops looking like a fluffy yellow puff and starts turning into an actual bird. Never gets old to watch.

We’ll keep you posted as both batches grow. Market details to come!

Tomato plants grow better when you prune them. Those small shoots that sprout where a branch meets the main stem (called “suckers”) pull energy away from fruit production as well as the low hanging branches, which encourage pests, disease, and decrease airflow and sunlight to the main branches. Removing them helps the plant put more into growing bigger, healthier tomatoes. 🍅
