In the summer of 2006, my husband, Aidan and I purchased the historic “Turkey Farm” in Hardwick, MA, with the goal of raising conscientiously-raised, grass-fed and pasture, hormone-free meats and poultry.  The opportunity to continue and add to our family’s rich farming legacy and agricultural traditions has been tremendous.  As young farmers we are proud of our roles in preserving open space and valuable agricultural lands in Massachusetts, believing that we are an important piece of the flourishing and creative, sustainable, local food system in the state.

We are incredibly excited to offer the “Stillman’s Farm community” additional safe, healthy, quality, and great tasting food options!

About our Meat: Our Unconventional Approach

We are a small, artisan family farm, committed to producing conscientiously raised, grass-fed and pastured, hormone free meats and poultry.  In this way we believe our farming methods and practices yield a distinctive and unique farm product, reflected in the taste, quality and health of our meats and poultry.    Today, most consumers are disconnected from the source of their food.  We are happy break this cycle and offer a real, tangible, tasty and conscientious connection from farm to plate!

The majority of the animals destined for the American food chain today, are raised on large-scale confinement operations, models of efficiency driven production: low/cheap inputs and standardized, quantity-based outputs.  As a small family farm, we are proud to be among a growing minority of American farms that has sought-out an alternative approach to animal husbandry, refusing such practices for the adoption of more holistic and sustainable techniques and philosophies, taking into account the health of our animals, our land and our families.  We are committed to conscientiously raising our animals.
