Our Story
Not long ago we were living the suburban dream. We had a growing family in a wonderful neighborhood, with good schools, nearby amenities and all the Netflix our wi-fi could handle. It was a wonderful life, but something was missing. Little did we know that a seed had been planted in both of our hearts. And what started as a spark of desire to move to the country, grew into a full fledged passion for farming. There were many factors at play, but ultimately the desire to responsibly raise safe, nutritious food was the reason we started Longbottom Farm. Continue Reading →

Latest Farm Updates
Nesting Cows and Uninvited Guest
This week on the farm…
1. Duncan is on hawk watch while Greta naps. He takes his job very seriously.
2. Raccoon tracks in the snow. Probably the reason Greta needed a nap.
3. Our cow is nesting. I think they’re spending too much time with the chickens.
4. You would not believe how excited I was for this egg basket. Watch out middle age, I’m coming for ya!

Thanks for following along with us and for your support. Keep your eye out over the next few weeks as we will begin offering bulk beef options (Quarters, Halfs, and Wholes). “Cowpooling” for those that want to stock up on 100% Virginia Raised Grassfed Beef. Shortly after that, it’s on to Pastured Pork. More details to come!
This Week Around the Farm
This week on the farm…
1. Brenda is an early bird. Literally.
2. My love/hate relationship with the boiler continues.
3. Chores with these two are always entertaining.
4. Breakfast date with Missy.

Cows got out (again) but eggs are in!
This week on the farm…
1.
After being up half the night with a teething baby, a rogue baby cow
was almost enough to put me over the edge. But getting him back in with
the help of a golden retriever in under 10 minutes kind of made me feel
like I could take on the world.
2. I might not seem like much, but this is a record haul for our little farm. The easter eggers are still freeloaders.
3. Miniature horse tack is easily confused with toy accessories.
4. Does anyone else find it amusing that someone cut down these trees just for us to plant them again?
