Practices

Birch Creek Farmery prioritizes sustainable agriculture, ethical animal husbandry, and heritage breed preservation. All animals graze on open pastures without antibiotics, growth hormones, or steroids. They specialize in heritage breeds like Galloway cattle, Berkshire pigs, and Icelandic lamb, known for exceptional flavor and tenderness.

Offerings

The farmery provides a range of products, including:

• Butcher Boxes: Monthly subscription or one-time purchases featuring ground meats, bacon, and specialty cuts.
• Custom Cuts: Half or whole orders of heritage meats (Berkshire pork, Icelandic lamb, Galloway beef).
• Specialty Items: Grass-fed beef hot dogs, Piedmontese jerky, and pasture-raised poultry.
• Sample Boxes: Curated tasting kits with eggs, beef, pork, and lamb.

Visiting & Experiences

Farm tours offer a 1.5-hour immersive experience, including animal interactions, seasonal bottle-feeding of young livestock, and meet-and-greets with staff. Tours conclude with a sampling of farm products. Walk-in sales are available at local markets, and fresh milk can be picked up on weekends or weekdays with advance notice.

How to Buy

Orders can be picked up at the farm or delivered via farm-to-door service. Milk deliveries require ordering by the first Sunday of each month. Custom cuts and bulk orders are available through the website. Subscription boxes and single purchases are both supported for meat, dairy, and specialty items.
