Raindance Organic Farm

Welcome

A thousand welcomes to our web site. The aim is to be as informative as possible but if you have any questions please use the contact button for more information. A little bit about us: The food chain on our farm is nice and simple. The shimmering green pasture plants capture solar energy to nourish our cows. The cows are the only food chain step between the grass and the milk; thus the name Sun Cheese. The synergy between the cow and her natural diet produces what I consider a health food; milk with at least twice the concentration of a cancer preventing fatty acid called CLA and also a better ratio of omega 3 to 6 than is found in milk from typical American farms that use a lot of corn silage and grain. We use a full fat recipe so you can take it in moderation and still garner the benefits of the healthy fatty acids.

Our Philosphy

The Raindance way: We go out of our way to be good stewards of the land. The process of allowing our cows to graze in a serious manner creates pulsing root mass growth in the grasses that increases the organic matter in the soil and takes carbon from the air and incorporates it in the soil for increased fertility the natural way. Our 80 cows currently graze 250 acres of carbon sequestering perennial pasture. Our cows calve in the spring to be in sync with nature and this simple practice saves gallons of diesel fuel when part of a grazing system. The cows harvest the majority of their feed as fresh grass when grazing on our farm. The majority of big farms in this country use tractors and diesel fuel to do this work. We think in the future, with dwindling fossil fuel supplies; small sustainable grazing farms will be more efficient than the mega farms. In fact, we think sustainable farming makes sense today though it is hard for us to compete with the heavily subsidized corn based farms.

Our Mission Statement

The mission of our family is to live well while growing food for our neighbors, with the least harm to the natural world we are all a part of.
