BELLE MEADE FARM



    Community Supported Agriculture    Livestock and Animals    Products and Prices


Belle Meade Farm specializes in pastured livestock raised without hormones or antibiotics, including cows, pigs, chickens, laying hens, and turkeys, as well as organic vegetables. In addition to our livestock and gardens, we also have an orchard with apples, peaches, pears, plums, and cherries. We are currently putting into affect a Permaculture design for the entire farm, so many new enterprises are being developed. We look forward to soon offer value-added goods, such as jams and salsas, a pick-your-own berry patch, with blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, and blackberries, and farm fresh cut flowers.

COMMUNITY SUPPORTED AGRICULTURE

Summer and Winter CSAs

We are hoping to soon expand our Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program to include a Summer CSA and a Winter CSA. The 2008 Summer CSA will be open to 10 families. Each share receives a basket of food each week which may include meat, eggs, and a variety of seasonal produce. The Winter CSA will be grown in a passive solar greenhouse and will provide our patrons with local, organic, fresh produce in the dead of winter.  The 2008-2009 Winter CSA will be open to 35 families. If you are interested in joining either CSA and would like more information, contact us.

Belle Meade School CSA

The Belle Meade School CSA, headed by Cooper (see About Us),  works in conjunction with The Belle Meade School. Students learn skills for sustainability by working around the farm and helping with farm chores. Each week, they take a basket of food home to their families that they helped to grow.

LIVESTOCK AND ANIMALS


Belle Meade Farm raises pastured cows, pigs, chickens, laying hens, and turkeys. The farm also features horses, dogs, cats, and an abundance of wildlife. Here at Belle Meade, all of our animal products are free-range and the beef is grass-fed. We practice management intensive rotational grazing in which our herd of cattle rotate through our pastures on a daily basis.

PRODUCTS AND PRICES




All livestock at Belle Meade Farm is free-range without hormones or antibiotics. The beef is all grass-fed. This process produces a lean, healthy meat. Since the meat is so lean, be careful to not to overcook. Steaks and roasts will taste better cooked medium or rare. Long, slow cooking with moisture is good for pot roasts. All of our meat is fully guaranteed or money back. Below is a list of prices for meat and eggs.
