Grass Finished Beef, Pastured Pork, Eggs and Fresh Veggies from our Market Garden
YOUR FARMERS
Our family has recently moved back to Canada, choosing Sundre, AB (Mountain View County) after 11 years of international agricultural work in Senegal (West Africa).
It is our desire to be able to connect people back to their communities, to creation and to their Creator by growing and supplying wholesome, nutrient-dense produce along with pastured meat and poultry.
Farming in a way that focuses on soil health, knowing that the plants we eat and the animals that forage from healthy soils are better for the animals, for us, and tastes great! We want to be good stewards of the land entrusted to us and utilize it in a way that brings and encourages life. Regeneration!
We farm holistically, knowing that every decision we make affects another component in the farm, another individual, our communities, and our environment.
Thanks for joining with us as we do our part to improve the health of our soils to grow food that tastes great and is good for us!
WHAT AND HOW WE ARE GROWING
Here at Ear to the Earth Farm we utilize regenerative, min-till techniques. Our broadfork is the primary tool for getting the new garden beds ready. We rely heavily on cover crops and foliar sprays and animals to bring soils back to life. The simple guidelines of not tilling, the use of mulch and keeping living roots in the beds as long as we can allows fungal networks, soil bacteria and beneficial microorganisms to flourish and do what nature does best, build soil. All the while keeping carbon in the ground where it belongs. Naturally 🙂
In the market garden we have:
-salad greens (lettuce mix, microgreens, spinach, kale and chard)
-tomatoes (cherries, heirlooms, and canning)
-cucumbers (long english and snacking)
-garlic (culinary, seed, and dehydrated)
For our grass fed and grass finished beef we are featuring a Canadian breed, Speckle Park, for exceptional flavor and finish on 100% Alberta grass 🙂
Our pork is all pastured in our woodlands; heritage breed pigs being pigs, rooting, running and free.
Beef and pork are seasonally available in fall by pre-order in 1/4’s and 1/2’s. Exceptional quality, nutrient-dense! Buy in bulk, share with your family, like the good old days 🙂
