Starts at 11AM on scheduled days. Enjoy a FARM TOUR of Otter Creek's diverse group of livestock and historical barns. While on the tour you may meet our pigs, laying hens, meat chickens, Gypsy the dairy cow and her calf, Fiona the sheep and maybe our grass fed beef herd (depends on where they are grazing at the time). We will discuss the importance of our farming practices and how it creates the most nutrient dense food and why it cost so much and is hard to find. Otter Creek Farm is certified Animal Welfare Approved by AGW so we will also discuss the how's and why's of our animal husbandry.
We will get started by meeting at the farm shop and Elizabeth will provide a bit of historical background of the farm and the farmers. Then we will spend about an hour to an hour and a half walking to each group of animals that we have on the farm at the time (animals come in and out seasonally). You will find out all about where your food comes from, the impact of your food choices for yourself, community and environment. Come ready to learn lots and ask as many questions as you want.
When you are done you will be inspired to cook or enjoy your next meal with mindfulness and an abundance of joy!
