Our Story
We have a passion for environmental sustainability, for ethically-raised food and livestock, for living lightly and locally. Mill Rock Farms is home and business, family and community, word and practice. Solar power, rainwater catchment, composting, rotational grazing, diversification, nutrient cycling, reducing, reusing, recycling, repurposing and soil regeneration are hallmarks here. What you won’t find are synthetic fertilizers and pesticides, antibiotics and hormones, or GMOs.

Our products
MRF is home to lush pastures and woodlands as well as no-till vegetable gardens. We carefully manage our flocks and herds to ensure we mimic ecological processes and protect the natural diversity of our farm while affording excellent quality of life and producing maximally healthful eggs, meat and animals. Shetland Sheep fleece, yarn and crafts are available in our online store. We occasionally have lambs and adults for sale as well as meat cuts. Fresh turkey available seasonally.
“Let’s save the world one earthworm at a time. Let’s pull carbon out of the atmosphere and turn it into life-giving soil. Let’s build food sovereignty and community health. Let’s create local economies. Let’s make a good living working intimately with one another and the earth”.
