Farming Practices

Hephzibah Farms places immense importance on the welfare of their livestock. Their grass-fed beef and Katahdin lambs enjoy a stress-free, natural environment, while Hampshire hogs roam freely in pastures supplemented with non-GMO feed. To ensure top-quality nutrition and animal health, they abstain from using antibiotics or hormones.
