Their meat is also much less “gamey” than more common breeds of sheep, which is why we often hear “This is the best lamb I’ve ever had!” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51ddbd4ee4b063b4f564c17b/1391493419448-RVN31OC65BIU8UO9SZK3/Lambs+on+Pasture.jpg Farm Photos - Pastured Sheep Here in the Willamette Valley of Oregon, our mild winters allow us to graze year-round. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51ddbd4ee4b063b4f564c17b/1389556204557-WE7R0ZWZLAMUZUDYG8IY/Sheep+on+Pasture.jpg Farm Photos - Pastured Sheep We’re able to easily lead the sheep to new areas by training them to follow us around the pastures. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51ddbd4ee4b063b4f564c17b/1389556333134-TLFYNGJKWOEVDUP07VQO/Sheep+on+Pasture.jpg Farm Photos - Pastured Sheep We use portable electric net fencing to set up temporary paddocks around the pasture for the animals to graze. It’s our primary tool for managing grazing and it also protects the sheep from coyotes.

We believe it’s more humane to raise slow-growing breeds like these Red Rangers, who love to run and roam. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51ddbd4ee4b063b4f564c17b/1389485214259-WMGZHLCK52XTKBSBSDFT/Red+Ranger+Chicks.jpg Farm Photos - Pastured Chickens We keep our baby chicks inside a warm shelter, known as a brooder, until they grow their feathers out and can be moved to the pastures. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51ddbd4ee4b063b4f564c17b/1389485215947-Y0Z257DDF9983LXMF203/Chickens+on+Pasture.jpg Farm Photos - Pastured Chickens Instead of using outdoor pens, we raise our chickens fully free range in what we like to call a chicken village, which we regularly move to new areas of pasture. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51ddbd4ee4b063b4f564c17b/1389556349889-K7PVTRXM4UTBLC9PBMOE/Pigs+on+Pasture.jpg Farm Photos - Pastured Pigs Our pigs are raised outdoors on pasture year-round. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51ddbd4ee4b063b4f564c17b/1377754625336-2U50RSQX3RN477D8Z48F/Pig+in+Grass.jpg Farm Photos - Pastured Pigs When pigs are outdoors in a natural environment, they are as calm and friendly as can be. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51ddbd4ee4b063b4f564c17b/1389555957514-X4H201W0K73P2SNG0XKT/Pigs+on+Pasture.jpg Farm Photos - Pastured Pigs They love exploring and rooting through the soil, eating roots, bugs and nuts as they go. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51ddbd4ee4b063b4f564c17b/1377754907415-S12RX3FGYZZ6URHRVRTN/Pastured+Pigs.jpg Farm Photos - Pastured Pigs We move the pigs to fresh pasture regularly, because, as most people don’t realize, they love to eat grass! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51ddbd4ee4b063b4f564c17b/1377755057014-82IOMJ0QXZTDIWFHO2U4/Pigs+in+Grass.jpg Farm Photos - Pastured Pigs The saying may be “happy as a pig in mud,” but pigs are actually much happier out of the muck. They love laying in the sun on clean grass. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51ddbd4ee4b063b4f564c17b/1389556448100-J8X5COSRIVO9Z4NB3MA0/Pigs+and+Sheep.jpg Farm Photos - Pastured Pigs
