Common Ground Organic Farm produces nutritious organic lamb, chicken, turkey,
eggs and vegetables. Our Jacob and Finn sheep, angora goats and llama produce
wool for sale. We are dedicated to the land, nurturing the soil, and acting as
responsible stewards in our relationship with the earth and what it can provide.
Common Ground has 82 acres in the Appalachian Mountains of Central
Pennsylvania, including mountainside pastures and natural wooded areas.
We
work hard to build healthy soil, which is the foundation of our organic system.
Cover crops, compost, mowing, rotation among livestock species and natural
habitat form the basis of our pasture system. We do not use synthetic
fertilizers.
Lambs are raised on 100% certified organic pasture and hay.
They receive no grain and have access to pasture 24 hours a day, all year long.
Turkeys and chickens sold as broilers are raised on free-range pasture. Hens
producing eggs are on free-range pasture or in a large portable pen. In addition
to pasture, all poultry eat 100% certified organic whole and ground grains. They
also eat a lot of leftover organic vegetables! No antibiotics, parasite
medications or hormones are used.
