Heart2Heart Farms did not begin as a business idea; it began as a crusade...

Like so many parents today, Tyler and Liz Boggs were concerned about the hormones, pesticides, and other chemicals in the foods their daughters were eating.  It only took a little research to realize they wanted to make some major changes.  Soon their family noticed an increase in their energy, vitality, and overall health as they eliminated the chemicals and processed foods from their diets.  It wasn't long before the extended family wanted to buy from the farm, but it didn't stop there.  Tyler and Liz began receiving calls from friends, then friends of friends, all of whom wanted to make the shift to buying local, chemical free, nutrient dense meats and produce.  And thus, Heart2Heart Farms was born!

 

When you do come to visit the farm, you should expect wind, rain, snow, slush, mud and muck and all sorts of slippery and uneven terrains to be traversed. There WILL be poop on the grounds from free-ranging animals, and said free-ranging animals may be quite persistent and pushy in their solicitation of attention - dress appropriately, as they will get you DIRTY. If you find these sorts of over-eager behaviors off-putting, then we are definitely NOT the place you should be visiting. As most wildlife species have a natural "musk," some quite pungent, there will be animal odors and flies.

 

Additionally, we're a self-sustaining farm, which means we harvest & process all our own livestock, tan hides, & dry the bones for bone-meal and tools (which means, depending on when you come, you might see cow parts, hides, or evidence of a recent harvest). We're still in the process of creating enclosed/designated space for all these systems, so scheduling trips out is always important.

 

There's often construction in progress/construction mess everywhere...it's far from fancy. We consider all of the forgoing a part of the "experience" and you should be fully prepared for, expect, and accepting of all of the peceeding with the zest and zeal of a true animal and farm lover. Wear shoes and clothing that you do not mind getting filthy :)

 

At Heart2Heart Farms we hope to continue our mission, for as long as we are able... providing access for everyone in the community, regardless of income level, to a better way to live and eat.
