Greyledge Farm

greyledge farm

Greyledge Farm is well-reputed and sells a wide range of top notch cuts and meats. They specialize in all-natural, pasture-raised Black Angus beef, pork from heritage hogs and free-range poultry. Their products are known for their quality and exceptional flavor. Their loyal customers are willing to pay a bit more for their products because they know that producing grass-fed, rotationally grazed cattle, pigs and chickens requires considerably more work and time than conventional farm practices. Antibiotics, steroids, or growth hormones are not used. Greyledge embraces and practices the importance of land preservation, renewable energy, sustaining local agriculture and observing best farm practices.
