Cottonwood Hill Farms is a family farm in McClelland, Iowa, on land John Springhower's grandparents bought in 1955.
John and Gina farm it today with their two children, practising regenerative agriculture and rotational grazing to build healthy soil. The dairy cows are 100% grass fed, wintered on the farm's own alfalfa, grass and clover hay, and the farm never uses synthetic fertilisers, chemicals, vaccines, hormones or preventative antibiotics. The whole operation is GMO and soy free.
Raw milk is the headline, sold by the half gallon through the farm's private ministerial association; membership is required to buy anything, and applications are available on site. The on farm market also stocks the farm's 100% grass fed beef, corn and soy free chicken and pork raised on pasture, free range eggs, plus local sourdough, raw honey and natural soaps. Visitors are welcome to come and inspect the animals, the practices and the feed, by arrangement.
