Shaded Grove Farm MarketFarm shop in Macon4.9 (34 reviews)Shaded Grove Farm Market in Macon, Mississippi grew out of a move from conventional row cropping to regenerative agriculture, rotating cattle through the pastures so the grazing builds the soil as well as the herd. The beef is grass fed and grass finished, and the farm also grows pecans, having taken on a long established pecan business alongside the cattle.
They have also raised lamb, pigs and chickens outdoors on non GMO feed, and hold any partner farms they source from to the same standards. Orders go through the online store with delivery available, and beef and pecans remain the farm's staples.J Cross S FarmsButcher in Utica5 (10 reviews)J Cross S Farms is a family run farm at Utica, Mississippi that grew from a small flock of chickens into a busy mixed holding. They keep goats and dairy cows, supplying raw milk through a herdshare programme, and raise beef cattle, chickens and turkeys alongside honeybee hives.
The range takes in farm fresh eggs, meat, honey and goat milk soap, lotions and other skincare made with milk from their own animals. Orders are placed through the online shop and collected at the farm, where a self service fridge keeps pickup simple.Lily Pond AcresRaw milk farmLily Pond Acres is a family farm in central Mississippi, home to Dexter and Jersey cattle, goats, KuneKune pigs, horses and poultry, with Armenian Gampr dogs watching over the animals.

W&W farmsHoney farmW and W Farms raises pasture based livestock in Mantee, Mississippi. Pigs, including heritage breeds, are farrowed and raised out on pasture with supplemental grain and no antibiotics or vaccines. Broilers are moved across the pastures daily and fed non GMO grain, the beef herd is grass fed with free choice hay, and the hens free range all day, so the eggs are never washed or refrigerated.
Pork is processed on the farm and sold only in shares, while beef, chicken and eggs are sold through the online store. Raw milk comes through a herd share scheme, since raw milk cannot legally be sold in Mississippi, with one share of the herd entitling you to a gallon a week.
