Beef, pork, lamb and poultry, raised with continuous attention to basic good husbandry — and sold by the quarter, half or whole straight from the farm.
We strive for continuous attention to basic good husbandry: good and plentiful food, clean and plentiful water, dry bedding, adequate shelter, plenty of space, vaccinations, and vitamin and mineral supplements.
Animals sold to customers for meat have never had antibiotics. In my experience, attention to basic good animal husbandry makes antibiotics mostly unnecessary. The animals stay healthy.
I prefer to focus my attention on providing good living conditions for the animals, and on buying feed locally. I buy grain from farmers in the area whenever I can. Most of my feed is custom blended by Floodwood Farm & Feed, which also sources grain locally as much as possible.
You have the right to visit the farm to choose your own animal prior to custom butchering. (But you don't have to choose your animal. I can do that for you if you prefer.)
WillowSedge Farm lies less than two miles as the crow flies from Libby Dam, site of the 1850 Sandy Lake Tragedy that caused the deaths of 400 Ojibwe people.
