Ararat Farm is a family farm located in the mountains of Lee County, Virginia and dedicated to raising the healthiest, best-tasting grass-fed beef, woodland pastured pork, and GMO- and soy-free chicken you can find! We practice holistic management so we can better steward all life on our farm, from the microbes under the soil to the animals eating the grass. Our cattle are intensively rotated through the pastures to ensure they always have access to premium grass and forbs and to allow plenty of regrowth time for the grass. Our pigs are rotated through a combination of pasture and woods to allow them to forage to the fullness of the ability that God created them with. Our broiler chickens are rotated daily through our fields to provide them with a fresh salad bar; they are supplemented with a GMO- and soy-free feed. We have been proudly providing hormone- and antibiotic-free meats to customers for 10 years now. We sell the beef in bulk (quarter, halves, and whole) two times a year (spring and fall). We sell the pork by halves and whole in the summer (to take advantage of the grasses) and the winter (to take advantage of the fall acorn crop). We offer select cuts of beef and whole chickens directly off our website. We use a local processor to butcher the meat, so it is frozen hard, labeled, and vacuum-packed when you get it. We welcome our customers to come visit the farm and see how their food is raised. Please contact us to get more information about ordering or about our farm.

Phone: (540) 382-1482. The Chapel Hill Farm, near Winchester, VA, turns back the history book to the way beef is supposed to taste. Chapel Hill Randall Linebacks live very much as they would have hundreds of years ago. Ranging free on the grasslands of historic Chapel Hill Farm and drinking only limestone springwater, the Randall Linebacks, America’s ancient and rarest cattle, provide the discriminating and health-conscious gourmet the finest beef in the world. Several hundred years ago, American farmers created the Randall Lineback through mixing European breeds to form a distinct blend that would naturally withstand the special rigors of the New World and that would provide meat, dairy products, and oxen. These animals were the ideal breed for subsistence farming in America. Randall beef was on America’s table before feedlots, before antibiotics, and before growth hormones. Because of their heritage, Randall Linebacks have finely grained meat with little intermuscular fat. Add to this the fact that they are grassfed and the result is meat that has an intense clean taste and is much better for you than conventional breeds of beef. You are saving the endangered Randall Lineback breed when you eat Chapel Hill Randall Lineback rose-veal and beef by thus encouraging producers to raise more of these rare cattle. In addition, you have the pleasure of tasting a natural beef which has not been commercially available for more than a hundred years. Beef sides cut to order, USDA inspected, available from the farm; separate cuts available at Salamander Market, Middleburg, VA. The Chapel Hill Farm, Joe Henderson, PO Box 797, Berryville VA 22611.

Since 2001, we have raised heritage breed Red Poll beef cattle, older breeds of laying hens (eggs), as well as pasture-raised broiler chickens. (As of 2014, we no longer produce broiler chickens.) We also produce smaller quantities of fruits and vegetables. Unlike most grocery store produce, however, we do not rely on CAFO fertilizer. Rather, our animals feed on our produce and in turn fertilize it, creating a perfect cycle. We not only provide a physical alternative to factory farming by raising animals solely on pasture, but more importantly, we seek to honor the life that feeds us and our community. We recognize that our animals and plants teach and sustain us, and we are humbly grateful to them. All plants and animals are loved and thanked throughout their lives for their sacred contribution to the whole. Our fruits and vegetables receive only organic fertilizers from our animals. Our animals' diet consists of grass, certified organic alfalfa, sea kelp, natural minerals, and hay in winter. We use a very small-scale, family-run processor dedicated to humane treatment of the animals. Unlike store-bought beef, they dry-age the meat. Our beef, eggs, and produce are not only good for you, but customers say, "you can taste the love." Local chef Rachel Willis described our beef as “absolutely the best-tasting grass-fed beef I've ever had.” Please see our website for basic information. We welcome visitors!

Our meats are naturally raised and grass-fed the way God designed them, with no growth hormones, stimulants, or antibiotics. The animals are raised on pasture, walking over acres of land, enjoying the sunshine and fresh air, foraging naturally like animals were created to do. Raising animals in their natural setting creates meat that is more healthy for you and your family, as well as being more humane for the animal. Sustainable agriculture also ensures that our children and grandchildren will have good farmland left to raise food for their family and friends. In 2005 we started raising animals for meat to have a clean source of happy, healthy food for our family. In 2006 we were blessed with enough products to start sharing with our friends. From there our business has spread by word of mouth. We thank God and our customers who have helped us grow into a sustainable business. We hope you will join us in our quest to promote and enjoy healthy, nourishing foods. Our farm store is open by appointment only.

Our eggs are truly free-range, they at no time are confined in a house with only a small dirt run to use. Our chickens follow behind the other livestock with electric netting and a house in which their feed, nests, and water is kept. Most of their day is spent outside on the fresh grass. All of our meat products are USDA inspected, vacuum sealed and frozen. We specialize in providing "by the cut," so no order is too small. We carry products year-around. We encourage visitors to the farm (call ahead please). We want to make the farm a part of the community, and the community a part of the farm. We take pride in the land that we have been provided and want to ensure that it will be here to provide for the community.

Tamworth is an old heritage breed that is long and lean and manages quite well living off the land with minimal help from the farmer.

Our crossbred pigs combine the leanness and hardiness of the Tamworth with the meatiness of other large traditional breeds. Our pigs are free to graze in fields of clover and orchard grass, snooze in the shade of the woods, root, (nothing short of concrete stops them, and we have none of that) and just do what pigs do naturally. Piglets are naturally weaned. No growth hormones or routine antibiotics are used. Pigs are available as feeder pigs (weaned piglets), or whole grown hogs for barbeques or your freezer etc. You may pick them up directly from the farm, or we can deliver to the butcher for you.

The Sanders Farm is located in the foothills of Clinch Mountain in upper east Tennessee, close to neighboring Kentucky, Virginia and North Carolina. We have tended a small beef cow/calf herd at our family farm since 1979. We have kept our pasture and hayfields herbicide and pesticide-free for over 40 years. We use no antibiotics, pesticides or growth stimulants of any kind on any animal to be sold on Eatwild. Flies are kept under control with a walk-through fly trap and dustings of diatomaceous earth. The calves I am selling eat only our own pasture and hay and their mother's milk. They free-range with their mothers and the rest of my closed herd until the day they are processed. I prefer to sell my calves whole or by the half in the late Spring or in the Fall. Hanging weight for a whole beef is around 300 pounds (give or take 50 pounds) and take-home meat averages 200 pounds. I deliver your calf to a state-inspected butcher near Rogersville, TN and you pick up your frozen (vacuum-packed in plastic) meat there. You decide which cuts you want using a cut-list I will mail you. All the soup/stock bones and organs from your beef are also available to you. We would rather sell our beef calves to individuals who want untainted beef than into the feedlot industry where they live a little longer but in an unnatural and highly stressful way.

Sarver Heritage Farm is a 3rd generation beef farm on 250 acres of beautiful rolling hills in the Organ Cave area of WV. This is a ‘forever’ farm, via the Farmland Protection Program. Basically, we’re a couple of hermits who avoid bright lights and buzzwords, off in the highlands raising the best darn beef you’ll ever taste. Our farming practices are featured in an international agricultural magazine and two books devoted to artisanal beef. Our practices, animals, and records are fully documented; we’re real, not buzz. We are what happens when you turn an artist/philosopher and a biology geek/animal lover loose with grandpa’s cattle farm. If you’re looking for extremely lean grass-fed beef—we can’t help you. Our Angus/Galloway herd produces beautifully marbled, dry aged steaks from fully fat-covered carcasses. Food reviewers swoon over it. From the Artisan Beef Institute: “I’m in hamburger heaven.” From Craig “Meathead” Goldwyn: “…the Platonic ideal of the modern steak. Sooooo beautifully beefy and best of all, balanced.” Yes, it’s that good. No, you can't get thirty pounds of Rib Eyes. Nutrition testing data is on our website and our FB page, (yes, we care enough to have our own testing done), as is all the information folks try to convey or imply with buzzwords. Our Beef and Rose Veal is USDA inspected and available by the cut at our Farm Store and through our Online Store. We offer Sides and Whole Beef from the farm only; prices based on hanging weight, pre-order/deposit required. Please see web site for details about our practices. Other farm products:

Beyond Organic, Integrity, and Transparency. The word "organic" has become whitewashed and usurped by commercial food companies.

We don't claim to be perfect, but we are committed to full transparency. We experiment, learn, and grow as food security and health become ever so important. Made in USA.

Spring House Farm was established during the spring of 2004 by Andrew and Liz Crush. They have two wonderful children, both young and very active, and believe in teaching them what hard work, determination, and creativity can do for them and their family. The farm consists of several owned and leased properties in Loudoun County, Virginia, just 40 miles from Washington DC. The Crush's raise a multitude of products, including grass fed/grass finished beef, pastured chicken, goats, lamb, and honey, and our award-winning pasture-raised and forest-finished heritage pork—winners of the 2013 Cochon 555 (Miami) and the 2016 Cochon 555 (Washington, DC). In the Summer of 2013, Spring House Farm launched its Meat CSA and "a la carte" program. CSA and "a la carte" orders are available for pickup at multiple locations in Loudoun and Fairfax counties, or you can shop our online store for 1-day shipping! We offer CSA packages in three sizes to fit your needs—Sampler, Lovers, and Family—and Spring/Summer/Fall/Winter CSA seasons, each with 6 deliveries total. In December 2017, Spring House Farm opened a Farm Store in Hamilton, VA. The Spring House Farm Store carries our meats, eggs, and honey, as well as local dairy, produce, gluten-free pies, and fresh flowers. This farmer's-market-style store allows our customers to shop local with farmers from their area. The store has a self-service honor system and is open 8am–8pm, 7 days a week. Credit cards are accepted. You can also shop at our Micro Store locations at Crooked Run Fermentation in Sterling, VA, or JK Community Farm in Purcellville, VA.

(540) 937-6124. Triple E Farms is a small, family-owned farm focused on doing things the old-fashioned way. You know, like it was about 100 hundred years ago. There were barely any chemicals or drugs. Farmers worked with the land, instead of against it. Animals were always outside. Most foods traveled from the farm to the home, and that's it. It might seem like this food is going extinct... but it still exists! We're doing it right now. We offer 100% grass fed raw dairy and cheese, grass-fed/grass-finished beef, pork, eggs, broilers (meat chickens), and turkeys. Our dairy cows and beef cattle are managed using rotational grazing to provide them with fresh grass as much of the year as possible. Our poultry is all raised outside and kept on fresh grass so they get their fill of bugs and fresh grass, and we supplement with a non-GMO, corn and soy free feed so their nutrition requirements are met. This provides a delicious and healthy product. Our pork is raised in the forest/pasture where they have access to shrub roots as well as fresh grass which in turn gives our pork a mouth-watering flavor. We also supplement our pigs with non-GMO, corn-and-soy-free feed to meet their nutrition requirements. We have pickup locations locally. We ship to all lower 48 states. Triple E Farms, Anthony Eash, Philip Eash, 995 JR Rannells Road, Romney WV 26757. (304) 790-2918. Truman Hill Farm offers 100% grass fed and grass finished beef by the quarter, half, or whole. We also offer bundles of our beef ranging from ribeye, filet, and NY strip to premium ground beef to specialty beef sausages, roasts, ribs, and more. Our Angus and Hereford beef is raised on no-spray pastures, rotationally grazed, and given zero grain, antibiotics, or added hormones. With natural supplements such as Redmond salt and Thorvin kelp and low-stress handling, our cattle finish into well marbled tender beef that is as tasty as it is nutritious! Truman Hill Farm has a strong focus on stewardship. Our land is protected by a conservation easement, our creek banks have been fenced and reforested, and we were named an Outstanding Forest Steward for woodland management. Beef bundles are available at regular pickup points in Moneta, Roanoke, and Christiansburg, and with home delivery through the Roanoke Valley.

As of 2020, we have added chickens and turkeys to our farm products – both raised on pasture and fed non-medicated, hormone-free, non-GMO feed. We raise Angus cattle while practicing rotational grazing to improve our farm, protect the environment, and support our community. We do not use chemical fertilizers, herbicides, or fungicides. We do not use growth hormones, steroids or antibiotics. We do not feed any grain. Our cattle thrive on natural pasture, while consuming fescue, orchard grass, and clovers. Although not certified organic, the cattle are managed organically in a low-stress environment and fed free-range organic minerals. We sell our eggs by the dozen, the pork by the pound, chicken and turkeys by the whole bird, and beef in family packs, 1/4, 1/2 and wholes. If you have questions, visit our website or give us a call.

Our mission is to create a sustainable farm that produces health and enjoyment for our livestock, our community, our customers, and ourselves. Nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains, we want to reconnect people to a more natural, wholesome, and healthy existence. We are seeking people from all walks of life who share our vision of how a farm should service its community and provide them with the ability to order natural products.
We selected cattle to be the mainstay of our farm due to our affinity with this truly gentle creature that has historically connected mankind with the natural world. Therefore, our beef is the way most people come to know us. Cattle are the centerpiece at Wolf Creek Farm, but we do offer several other grass farming based services and welcome friends and neighbors to come visit us. As grass farmers, we steward the soil, woodlands, and riparian ways with only natural amendments and methods. As traditional animal husbandry men, we raise our herd with no force-fed hormones or antibiotics and commit to provide healthy and nutritious beef from our farm to your table. Our beef is processed at a USDA inspected artisanal abattoir, dry-aged and then flash frozen in vacuum packs. It is available for on-farm pick-up in quantities of: whole beeve, side, quarter, large box (eighth), or small box (twentieth). Delivery can be arranged within 50 miles of the farm for orders of a side or greater. For more information please visit our website, or contact us by phone or e-mail. We are happy to answer your questions, take your order, and arrange your visit to the farm. Wolf Creek Farm, John Whiteside, PO Box 10 / 4345 Wolftown-Hood Road, Wolftown VA 22748. (540) 948-5574.
