Our Farming Practices

At Maple Ridge Farm, we are committed to sustainable, responsible, and thoughtful farming practices. We believe in raising animals in a way that respects their natural needs while producing wholesome, high-quality food for our customers.

We are strong advocates for grass-fed and grass-finished beef and lamb, allowing these animals to thrive primarily on pasture and forage. Our pork is grass-fed and supplemented with organic grain, providing a balanced diet while allowing our pigs to enjoy plenty of time on pasture.

We also offer organic-fed chicken and eggs, with a focus on providing our poultry with quality feed and a healthy environment.

Our goal at Maple Ridge Farm is to raise food responsibly, prioritize animal welfare, care for the land, and provide our community with nutritious farm products we are proud to put on our own tables. We believe sustainable farming starts with doing what is best for the animals, the land, and the families we serve.

Farm to table

Farm Fresh Eggs & Organic Eggs

Farm fresh eggs available year-round. Our hens are fed Kalmbach layer feed, organic scratch, grit, oyster shells, and frequent fresh snacks from the garden. $5/dozen. Eggs are unwashed. Unwashed eggs keep at room temperature for ~2 weeks and in the refrigerator ~3 months. Gently wash with warm water before use. Washed eggs must be refrigerated.

Organic eggs available. One of our flocks eats 100% USDA organic feed and organic fresh veggies. You can now get local, farm fresh eggs that are GMO and pesticide free. $10/dozen.

We have young laying hen flocks available for purchase every year. We currently have 1 1/2 year old laying hens available (Golden Commet, Sapphire Gem, Rhode Island Red, and Cinnamon Queen).

Farm Raised Organic Chicken

Our chickens are humanely raised and fed USDA organic feed supplemented with organic vegetables. We choose quality ingredients and responsible farming practices, with no GMOs, pesticides, antibiotics, added hormones, or preservatives.

We believe you should know where your food comes from and how it was raised. From the feed we provide to the way we care for our birds, our goal is to produce chicken that is wholesome, nutritious, and raised with integrity.

Our organic-raised chicken is available whole or by individual cuts, giving you convenient options for bringing Maple Ridge Farm chicken to your family’s table.

Grasss-Fed, Grass-Finished USDA Angus Beef

At Maple Ridge Farm, we’re proud to raise a small, low-stress herd with a focus on responsible farming and high-quality beef.

Our cattle are 100% grass-fed and grass-finished, with no added hormones, preservatives, colors, or fillers. They are dewormed as needed and are not vaccinated. We currently have Angus beef and are transitioning to raising our own Hereford and Charloias beef.

For the final week before transport, our cattle are offered a small amount of USDA organic feed as a treat while they are safely penned and prepared for processing. Once processed, our beef is aged for 21 days to enhance tenderness and develop a rich, flavorful eating experience.

Grass-fed, grass-finished beef is naturally leaner and has a distinct, slightly sweet flavor compared with grain-finished beef.

St. Croix Grass-Fed, Grass-Finished Lamb

At Maple Ridge Farm, every lamb we offer is born and raised right here on our farm from our own St. Croix breeding stock. Our sheep live freely on large, open grass pastures where they can graze naturally and move as they please.

Our lamb is 100% grass-fed and grass-finished, with our flock supplemented with top-quality Timothy/orchard grass hay sourced from New York when additional forage is needed. Our meat lambs are not vaccinated and are raised without antibiotics.

After processing, our lamb is aged for one week to help develop tenderness and flavor. We do not use preservatives, fillers, or flavor enhancers.

St. Croix lamb is naturally very lean, with a delicate, clean flavor that is distinctive without being overpowering. It is incredibly versatile in the kitchen and pairs beautifully with beef. Lamb is especially delicious in Italian and Greek-inspired dishes, from hearty pasta sauces and meatballs to gyros, grilled chops, and traditional Mediterranean recipes.

We offer our farm-raised lamb as whole or half lambs, as well as individual cuts, so you can choose what works best for your family.

From our pastures to your table, we’re proud to raise lamb right here at Maple Ridge Farm with an emphasis on natural grazing, responsible animal care, and quality you can taste.

We occasionally have registered St. Croix weaned lambs available for purchase from our farm. Availability is limited and varies throughout the year. Contact us to inquire about currently available registered St. Croix weaned lambs.
