Of the Land

Regenerative, Humane, Ecological Farming
- with Pride and Love -

Are you READY for THANKSGIVING?
There is nothing better than a pasture-raised, FRESH turkey!

Delivery will be on TUESDAY between 6 and 9 PM.  Pick up may be arranged for WEDNESDAY (the day before Thanksgiving) between noon and 6 PM.  $8.00/pound, Additional $10 for delivery within service area. (If you want something other than a whole turkey fresh, let us know and we will try to accommodate you.)

Turkeys range from 12-30 pounds.  We do our best to match what you want to what we have.  
See our Price page for Frozen turkey alternatives.

When Anne and John (the Gray) got married, they dreamt of a field and barn instead of a lawn and picket fence.

After many years of searching, waiting, and learning through urban farming, they purchased land in Cedarburg, WI. Now, they and their four adult children are happy stewards of 20 acres. Their son John (the Tall) is the primary farmer, spearheading the effort to bring our delicious food to your table.

Welcome to Of the Land Farm!

Using the best regenerative, ecological, humane methods, we raise all-but organic (everything but the label) chickens, ducks, turkeys, rabbits, pigs, sheep, and goats, and, most importantly, pasture!

All our animals are pasture-fed, and most are pasture-raised.

Our prices are at or below USDA average whole-sale price at time of processing. You know that your food has been raised humanely, with individual attention and enough space to help regenerate the land. Most larger productions might have 2-4 species of plants to graze on. We have many more—including grasses, legumes, and forbs with medicinal value -- and we have watched the land heal: it has changed from a few insects on a monoculture to a wide variety of butterflies, grass-hoppers, frogs, bugs and more. But, because we are a small operation, fixed costs are higher per animal and we do not have access to large bulk discounts. While we would love to sell at lower prices, we need to break even. When you pay a slightly higher price you are not only buying healthy food, but you are improving the Earth.

NOTE: When animals cannot be on pasture, animals are still given room to move about, and eat a combination of fresh plants taken from the pasture (if available), hay from our pasture, and certified organic feed.  Reasons to not be on pasture: too wet, too cold, too hot, period of high predation.

John the Tall

Farmer / Certified in Pasture-Based Livestock Managment, BSE

John the Tall fell in love with farming after joining the 4-H rabbit project. Since then, he attended the Farm and Industry Short Course at UW-Madison, where he focused on pasture and livestock management. Naturally, he directs all things pasture, striving to improve local biodiversity while growing the healthiest forage. He is excited to raise healthy, delicious meat for you and your family!

Anne

Owner, Manager / APNP, FNP-BC, NFP-C, IFM-C

Anne is a nurse practitioner specializing in functional medicine. The decline in pollinators affected her ability to grow food for her family, reinforcing how the health of our world / food is essential to our own health and well-being. This resulted in finding ways to “farm” in the city, including bee-keeping. As we have grown, her contributions to the farm center on soil and animal health and well-being, as well as creating metrics to evaluate and improve farming methods and efficiency.

John the Gray

Investor, Farm Hand / MBA, USAR-LtC(R)

John the Gray is a life insurance underwriter with a degree in English literature. He loves the farm - the idea of the farm, looking out over the land, and doing his part to keep equipment running and creatures growing. He looks forward to the day we are able to resume beekeeping - hopefully soon!

Edward

Farm Hand / CNA

Edward is an engineering student and the manager of an acapella group. He enjoys working with the animals and providing manual labor. He hopes to someday be able to provide small-scale butchering for local farmers like us.

Sarah

Dietitian, Farm Hand / RD

Sarah enjoys using her dietary knowledge to support the farm effort - and driving the tractor and participating in community labor days (construction projects, tree planting/care days, and more). She finds peace and awe in agricultural endeavors. Any recipes shared from our farm are Sarah-tested and family-approved!

Katie

Data Scientist, Farm Hand / MS

Katie loves getting out on the farm to be another pair of hands on big projects, and making animals happy - and keeping the humans happily fed! Also a pencil farmer, Katie works on our marketing and is slowly building tools to help small farms like ours become data-driven for economic sustainability.
