Caring for our animals, land, and community
At West Fork Farmstead, we are transforming a conventional farm operation into a pasture-based, regenerative farm to produce delicious, high-quality food for our community.
We are passionate about providing healthy, happy lives for our animals; improving the health of our soil, air, and water; and doing so in a way that cares for and feeds our community.
We produce grass fed beef, pastured chicken, pork raised outdoors, pastured chicken eggs and duck eggs, and raw honey. We sell our food directly to people in our community in eastern Iowa.

You can access our food in a variety of ways:

Good food raised well
We raise our animals outdoors to provide healthy environments with sunshine, fresh air, and freedom to move and roam. We rotationally graze our cows and chickens on pasture on our farm. Our pigs, chickens, laying hens, and ducks receive feed made with non-GMO ingredients. Our cows graze on pasture and also eat hay in the winter; we do not feed them grain. We do not use chemicals or synthetic fertilizers on our pastures.
