Fox Holler Farmstead

The family lives and grows food off grid, using rainwater catchment and solar energy, and practices no till and low till farming that weaves management intensive rotational grazing through annual vegetable crops and perennial agroforestry. No synthetic fertilisers, pesticides or fungicides are used, and the goal in their own words is nutrient dense food on a human scale while regenerating soils.

Offerings run from raw grass fed dairy to pasture raised eggs, rotationally grazed heritage breed chicken, duck and turkey fed organic grain, and kunekune pigs raised on grass and fattened on acorns for creamy, high quality fat. Seasonal heirloom produce, fruit, nuts and chestnuts follow the growing season. Orders are collected at the farm, with a tour included, or at drop days in nearby communities such as Kirksville and Quincy.
